Causes of Detergent Allergies

Detergent allergies are caused by the harsh chemicals, dyes, and fragrances often found in laundry detergents and cleaning products. These substances can cause skin irritation, inflammation, and other allergic reactions. People with sensitive skin or conditions like eczema are particularly susceptible.

  • Rashes or hives: Allergic reactions often present as red, raised welts or small, itchy bumps.
  • Dry, cracked skin: Prolonged exposure can cause the skin to become dry, flaky, and cracked.
  • Swelling or blisters: In severe cases, detergent allergies can lead to swelling and fluid-filled blisters on the skin.
