“…The reactive oxidative hair dye precursors are strong sensitizers and, thus, major causes of allergic contact dermatitis in hairdressers, in particular PPD and PTD [11]. In addition, they rarely cause immediate-type reactions such as asthma, rhinitis, and contact urticaria [39,64]. Skin exposure may occur when preparing or applying the hair dye, when cutting newly dyed hair and from contaminated surfaces.…”

Summary Immediate skin reactions are common in dermatological practice, but may often be overlooked. The main objective of this article is to provide an update of the literature concerning immediate‐type reactions or contact urticaria/contact urticaria syndrome caused by cosmetic ingredients in terms of immediate clinical symptoms, positive reactions following open, scratch or, most often, prick testing, and sometimes the detection of specific IgE antibodies. To this end, a selective search in different medical literature databases was performed. This yielded a list of cosmetic ingredients causing immediate reactions, including hair dyes and bleaches, preservatives, fragrance and aroma chemicals, sunscreens, hair glues, plant‐derived and animal‐derived components, permanent makeup and tattoos, glycolic acid peel, lip plumper, and alcohols. Many of the reported cases, however, lack appropriate controls and detailed investigation. Contact urticaria may occur with or without systemic symptoms, which are sometimes life‐threatening.

“…PPD is even used for dying eyelashes and causes severe contact dermatitis and blepharoconjunctivitis [19,20]; this practice should be forbidden by EU legislation. In addition to severe cases of contact dermatitis, severe immediate-type reactions (the contact-urticaria syndrome) may also occur, not only to PPD [21], but also to direct hair dyes, such as basic blue 99 and basic brown 17 [22]. This is also the case with hair-bleaching agents based on persulfates [23] that, besides delayed-type allergens, have been recognized for several decades as causes of immediate-type reactions, such as asthma in hairdressers, in particular.…”

This article presents trends in the frequency of cosmetics as causal factors of allergic contact dermatitis during a 26-year period in 14,911 patients patch-tested between 1990 and 2014, and discusses the cosmetic allergens identified during the last six years (2010-2015) in 603 patients out of 3105 tested. The data were retrieved from, and evaluated with, a patient database developed in-house. The results show the increasing importance of cosmetic allergies, up to 25% of the patients tested during the last five-year period. As expected, fragrance materials, preservatives, and hair dyes were the most frequent culprits, but a great variety of other allergenic ingredients were involved as well. This underlines the need of additional and extensive patch testing with the patient's products used and their ingredients.
