The rise of Methylisothiazolinone (MI)<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The use of MI (Methylisothiazolinone) in the cosmetics industry has been prevalent for years. However, there has been an increase in the concentration of this ingredient in products, especially in those targeted toward babies and children. This is because the industry has been phasing out other controversial preservatives such as parabens.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14263\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14263\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14263 size-full\" title=\"allergic-reaction-to-wet-wipes\" src=\"https:\/\/dhti.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image3-min-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"allergic-reaction-to-wet-wipes\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14263\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The use of Methylisothiazolinone prolongs the product\u2019s lifetime<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is widely recognized that babies have more sensitive skin compared to adults. Yet, the exact reasons for this heightened sensitivity are not as commonly understood. One hypothesis suggests that newborns have more absorbent skin due to its thinness and larger surface area. As a result, anything that comes into contact with their skin is rapidly absorbed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Related: <a href=\"\/?p=10284\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">What is Methylisothiazolinone<\/a> (MIT)?

How to treat an allergic reaction to wet wipes?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you suspect that your baby is allergic to MI or any other ingredient in baby wipes, there are a few steps you can take for immediate relief. During diaper changes, try using water and a washcloth instead of wipes to clean your baby&#8217;s skin. This will help determine if the rash clears up without the use of wipes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, if you personally experience a rash, consider getting tested to determine if you have an allergy to MI.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14259\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14259\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14259 size-full\" title=\"allergic-reaction-to-wet-wipes\" src=\"https:\/\/dhti.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image4-min-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"allergic-reaction-to-wet-wipes\" width=\"800\" height=\"537\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14259\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Seeing an allergy doctor is advisable<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In cases where you suspect an allergy related to MI, it is advisable to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Experts recommend conducting a patch test on the inside of your arm, near the elbow, using the product in question twice a day for two weeks. This test can help identify if the wipes are causing discomfort or allergic reactions for you or your baby.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Related: <a href=\"\/?p=9789\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Do makeup wipes cause acne<\/a>?
