Patch test Instructions: how to safely test for skin sensitivities.

Cleanse a small area of your skin, preferably on the inner side of your forearm or behind your ear, with a mild cleanser and pat it dry.

Apply a small amount of the product you want to patch test onto the cleansed area. Make sure to only use a small, pea-sized amount.

Allow the product to sit on your skin for at least 24 hours. It’s important not to wash or expose the patch test area to excessive moisture during this time.

During the 24-hour period, carefully observe the patch test area for any signs of redness, itching, swelling, or irritation.

After 24 hours, check the patch test area again. If you experience any adverse reactions or discomfort, such as persistent redness or severe irritation, it’s best to discontinue use of the product.

Remember, patch testing is a helpful precautionary step to identify potential skin sensitivities, but it may not guarantee that you won’t experience a reaction in the future. Always consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns or persistent skin reactions.
