28: How Fragrances Affect Your Skin
Episode description
Fragrances are all around us. They can be found in everything from perfumes, lotions and candles, to detergents, air fresheners, and even baby products. While fragrances are appealing, it’s important to keep in mind how they might be affecting your skin and overall health.
I’m joined today by Dr. Edward Prodanovic to chat about what exactly fragrances are, their effects on your skin, and how you can begin to make smart decisions regarding scented products.
In this episode, we’ll cover:
- The difference between ‘fragrance free’ and ‘unscented’ terminology
- Fragrance free product recommendations for your home, body and skin
- The difference between irritants and allergens
- Synonyms for fragrance to look out for on ingredient lists
- Why consistency and routine are so important for dry skin conditions
