Tiyah I've also had bad reactions to eyelash glue. My eyes get swollen n very itchy. Thanks for the tip about the Revlon glue. I think I'll try it because I love lashes!

I'm allergic to clean&clear, neutrogena, garnier, and johnsons products. All of them made my skin hot, red and shiny and made my skin burn in a way that made me feel sickly. I also noticed that after a Body Shop makeover my eyelids were rather puffy. My skin is pretty sensitive :(

I used to think I was allergic to all SPF in products; redness, hives, itchy, swelling. But after a few years, I figured I'm only allergic to octinoxate, I'm alright with titanium and zinc dioxide though. And I'm sensitive to salicylic acid, my acne much prefers benzoyl peroxide and/or tea tree oil.

I've had issues with the Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit makeup remover wipes. They burn my skin and eyes, I had to give them to my mom and switch back to the regular Neutrogena makeup wipes. I also have a problem with most liquid eyeliners I've tried. They make my eyes sting and get really red and puffy, especially the outer corners of my lids, so I mainly just stick to gel liners.

I'm allergic to Carmex. My lips blew up and it was so painful. They eventually blistered and peeled.

The worst makeup allergic reaction I've seen was when my mom tried Yves St. Laurent mascara and foundation. Her eyes swelled shut and her face turned bright red. I've never seen blisters like that before. Not only did her face blister, but her eyeballs blistered too. She looked like she had a serious burn. She ended up having to go to the doctor's for it.
