This review explores common triggers of allergic reactions, including environmental factors, food allergens and chemical irritants found in cosmetics and skincare products. The mechanisms underlying allergic reactions and skin sensitivity are discussed, highlighting the role of the immune system and genetic predispositions. Treatment strategies are examined, ranging from avoidance of known allergens to pharmacological interventions such as antihistamines, corticosteroids and immunotherapy. Additionally, the importance of personalized skincare routines and the use of hypoallergenic products for managing sensitive skin is emphasized. This comprehensive overview aims to provide insights into effective management and preventative measures for individuals suffering from allergic reactions and sensitive skin.
