apple face cream - #21533

Vihaan

I am a bit freaked out after trying out this new apple face cream my friend recommended. She swears by it, said her skin glows now, but honestly, I didn’t expect what followed. After using the apple face cream for just two days, my skin felt super oily, and I noticed these tiny red bumps appearing on my cheeks. I thought it was just getting used to the product but it kept getting worse! I checked the ingredients, but seems pretty standard, nothing crazy like parabens or sulfates or whatever. Would the apple face cream really cause breakouts so fast? I mean, isn’t it supposed to be good for your skin? Now I'm worried because I've never had skin issues before, and I don’t know if I should stop using it completely or just give it a little more time. Like, any of you guys had similar experiences with apple face cream? What's the deal with it? Should I maybe cleanse my face more? Ugh, I just wanna find a product that works not one that makes it worse. Any advice or thoughts would help!

Doctors' responses

Yes, an apple face cream can indeed cause your skin to breakout if there’s an ingredient in it your skin isn’t tolerating well. It sounds like you’re experiencing a form of contact dermatitis or an acneiform reaction. It’s not uncommon for new skincare products to cause unexpected reactions, especially if your skin is sensitive or particularly reactive. Apple extracts can contain acids or enzymes that might be irritating for some people, despite sounding natural and beneficial. The tiny red bumps and increased oiliness you mentioned are signs that your skin might not be adjusting well to this product.

I would recommend you to stop using the cream immediately to avoid further irritation. Sometimes a patch test on a small area before using a new product all over your face is wise, as it helps you identify any adverse reactions. Make sure to wash your face with a gentle cleanser that you know does not irritate your skin, and avoid any harsh scrubbing which might aggravate your skin condition. You could consider sticking to a simple skincare routine for now, focusing on hydrating and non-comedogenic products until your skin calms down. If these red bumps persist or worsen, it might be worth consulting a dermatologist. They can provide more specific advice and potentially prescribe topical treatments to soothe your skin. In the future when trying new products, look for those labeled non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic, since these are less likely to cause blockages in your pores or irritation.
