body zones & triggers
Each person's experience with Skin Flare-Up of eczema & dermatitis is unique and the cause can be just as individual. Skin Flare-Up can be provoked by a host of trigger factors - some are irritants, and some are allergens. Food and stress can also contribute to Skin Flare-Up.

Also, for hereditary reasons, some people inherit a naturally weaker skin wall, and are therefore more likely to experience Skin Flare-Ups.

Since hair dyes can provoke Skin Flare-Up of eczema or dermatitis of the scalp in some individuals, it is probably best to avoid colouring your hair. However, if you must use a hair dye despite having sensitive skin, check whether your chosen brand and colour is safe for you, by performing a patch test on a small area of skin first. Never apply hair dyes with bare hands, always wear plastic gloves.
