HOW-TO
PATCH TEST
Patch testing is an important step when introducing new skincare products
to your routine.
After having an allergic reaction to a new serum over the weekend, I will never skip a patch test again!
I just picked up some new products & am going to show you how to properly test them!
First, choose
a clean & dry area of your forearm to be the testing location.
Next, apply a small amount of each product* to the arm.
*If testing more than one, remember the order that you're applying!
Let it dry & sit on the skin for a full 24 hours - taking note of any sensations.
If there was
any
burning, itching, redness, blisters, or irritation - do not use the product.
24 HOURS LATER
This small step may save you a lot of time,
pain, & potential damage to y
our skin!
Next time you pick up a new product, do not skip the patch test!
