What can be a possible outcome of prolonged contact with an allergen?

Prolonged contact with an allergen can lead to allergic dermatitis, a condition characterized by inflammation of the skin resulting from an allergic reaction. This occurs when the immune system identifies a substance as a threat and triggers an inflammatory response. Symptoms often include redness, itching, swelling, and sometimes blistering. In the context of beauty treatments, individuals may develop allergic dermatitis in response to ingredients found in products such as lash adhesives or other cosmetics. Understanding this connection is crucial for professionals in the lash industry, as it highlights the importance of identifying and mitigating exposure to potential allergens in products used during services to protect clients’ skin health.
