Give your skin a break
Mark your calendar: Januari 16, 2025 No Perfume Day.
On this day – organized by AllergyCertified – we encourage you to avoid using fragranced products, giving your skin a chance to breathe. While perfume smells lovely, it’s not so kind to your skin. About 27% of the European population suffers from a skin allergy, partly due to perfume use. So take a closer look at your skincare routine and join us for No Perfume Day!
Why join?
Do you know what you put on your skin every day? It’s often more than you think!
Shower gel, day cream, makeup, perfume, body lotion, shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, and even laundry detergent – they all contain fragrance. A lovely scent, of course, but it can irritate your skin. Fragrances and perfumes can even lead to contact allergies. And once you have one, it’s there to stay. A quarter of the European population deals with contact allergies, often caused by perfume. That’s why we want to encourage everyone on No Perfume Day to replace all fragranced products – ideally for a day, but preferably forever – with fragrance-free alternatives. Will you join us?
Founder AllergyCertified and Toxicolgist Ewa Daniel says:
"Fragrance allergy develops when the skin is frequently exposed to perfume. That’s why we recommend giving your skin a break from fragrance on January 16."
Honor your skin.
Your skin is your largest organ. It regulates your body temperature and protects you from external influences. Throughout your life, your skin endures a lot. Sunlight, dry air, cold, wind, seawater, and perfume. The more often your skin comes into contact with perfume, the greater the chance of developing a contact allergy. Give your skin a break by being more mindful of what you apply to it. No Perfume Day is the perfect moment to start doing this.

More reasons to join No Perfume Day:
Awareness: Many people do not realize that fragrance substances can be the cause of various skin issues. On No Perfume Day, we aim to raise awareness about this.
Give your skin a break: By not using fragrance substances for one day, you allow your skin the chance to breathe.
Join for the future: Skin problems such as contact allergies are permanent – once you have it, you cannot get rid of it. By making conscious choices now, you protect your skin in the future.
Discover your own body scent: In the animal kingdom, pheromones play a crucial role in attracting other animals of the same species. Such a pheromone is also known as an attractant. Similarly, in humans, body scent determines attraction between individuals. Fragrance blocks this natural mechanism, which is a pity! On No Perfume Day, (re)discover the power of your own body scent.
