Nowadays there is a range of fragrance free skincare products available, both in supermarkets and drug stores. Why is there an increasing demand for these products and why should we seriously consider buying them? After all they don’t seem as attractive as products that have a lovely and inviting smell. There are several reasons why a product without fragrance is better for you and we’ll look at these below.

Fragrance free products are not only better for your skin, but for your health as well. This is because that they contain less chemical ingredients that can leach through the skin and lodge in the fatty tissues of the body. Once in there they are hard to remove, potentially leading to diseases such as cancer.

Use of skincare with added frangrance contributes to skin irritation and inflammation and can cause skin allergies. If you have sensitive skin, a fragrace based product can cause a severe reaction which may lead to skin rupturing and bleeding. Those with sensitive skin should ensure any product they choose contains no trace of fragrance or any other chemical ingredient.

Another advantage of using fragrance free products is that they can be used on the whole family, including family members with skin problems and sensitive skin and also children. So when buying skincare products, it is useful to think about who will be using them, because in the end a fragrance free product is best for the whole family.

Some products that include different fragrances can also cause a reaction when inhaled and therefore causing an internal allergy such as sneezing, coughing, headaches and runny nose. It is very important to know if you have an allergy to any of the chemicals that these products are mixed with as not to suffer with any of these symptoms. Whereas with fragrance free products, there is never a problem with this type of reaction.

You may well ask yourself why manufacturers bother to add frangrance to their products given the amount of trouble they can cause. The answer is simple, pleasant smelling products sell a lot better than those with no aroma at all. It’s all to do with the marketing.

If you are concerned about chemicals in skincare products, it would be a good idea to have a simple allergy test performed by your doctor. Whatever the results, you can enjoy peace of mind by simply making sure you select fragrance free skincare products each time. There is a good choice of these products now available such as body lotions, face creams, body washes, soaps and natural products scented with natural aromatherapy oils.
