- Abstract
Allergic contact dermatitis from cosmetic pigments is uncommon. The European Standard and the facial series of contact allergens normally used encompass the majority of sensitisers commonly causing contact dermatitis of the lace but does not include pigments. The article reports about a lady who developed a contact sensitivity to the pigment in her blusher. The allergen responsible would have been missed if cosmetics and toiletries were not routinely used in patch tests when investigating facial eczema.
