Quick Fixes for sensitive skin!

Skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis are common ailments. People suffering from these serious conditions are always told not to use cleansers of any form but ironically, they are almost unavoidable as cleansers are necessary for basic cleanliness and hygiene in our daily lives.

So, could your laundry detergent be aggravating the problem? You may notice that your skin itches after you wash your clothes or try a 'new and improved' washing product. The ingredients in your detergent are to blame.
Fortunately, there are plenty of laundry detergents that are dye-free, scent-free and hypoallergenic that work for sensitive skin. Look for brands that include no added colours or scents.

Also, use less detergent and add a second rinse cycle to be sure that the itch is banished. If all else fails, try baby detergent which is designed for super-sensitive skin.
