Cosmetics for Sensitive Skin

There’s an impressive number of cosmetics available on the market, carrying a much higher number of ingredients to skin. 

The number of cosmetics available is rapidly growing and forecasts say we’re bound to have an increase of the rate of adverse reactions. Thus, given the broad use of cosmetics, It is important to keep their side effects under control.
