13 Reasons for Itchy Red Face Blotches

 

 

Here are 13 reasons you may get itchy red face blotches and patches.  There are actually more but this could solve your skin condition.

 

 

Inflammation is your body's natural response to infection or injury. In some cases, the inflammatory response is over-reactive. That is the case in allergic reactions.

 

In the vast majority of cases, inflammation on the face is caused by some kind of irritant or irritation. For example, over-cleansing or excessive rubbing can cause irritation. Skin soaps are a common cause of dermatitis, which is inflammation of the skin.

 

The symptoms may be a reaction to an irritant in a skincare product, other than a cleanser. There are literally thousands of known skin irritants in cosmetics.

 

What follows is just a short list of them:

 

Sodium laurel sulfate

Parabens

Quaternium-15

Alcohol

Phenol

Tretinoin

Formaldehyde and formaldehyde releasers

Ethylene oxide

Alpha hydroxy acids

Beta hydroxy acids

Ascorbic acid

Salicylic acid

Benzoyl peroxide
