Well-known examples of this are bergamot oil or lemon oil. Responsible for this are so-called furocoumarins. These are secondary plant substances that plants use to protect themselves against pathogens. Furocoumarins are extremely reactive chemical compounds that interact with human skin under the influence of UV radiation.

If you have no problems and the scent of your cosmetics brings you joy, there&#8217;s nothing wrong with continuing to use products that you tolerate well. For people with allergies and intolerances, as well as for children, products without fragrances are certainly not a bad alternative. Also, if you suddenly feel that you can&#8217;t tolerate certain care products, you should consider a contact allergy. If you suspect contact allergies, you should ask your doctor to refer you for an allergy test. Here, the most common contact allergens, including fragrances, can be tested. When it comes to sunscreens, I personally prefer fragrance-free products, because under intense UV radiation, the chemical structures of perfume substances can break down and therefore act phototoxically. And for many years, I&#8217;ve been applying my perfume to my hair or clothes instead of on my skin, as I can safely avoid unwanted pigment spots from a light reaction.       <\/p><p>Stay Healthy<\/p><p>Your Dr. Ilieva<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am frequently asked by patients whether they should exclusively use products without fragrances.
