The Allergen Information Sheets have been received from sources believed to be reliable, but they have not be reviewed, edited, or approved by ACDS. The information provided in the Allergen Information Sheets is not intended to be relied upon as medical or legal opinion, nor should it replace the considered judgment of a licensed professional with respect to particular patients, procedures, or practices. In addition, legal and medical standards can vary from one jurisdiction to another and are subject to change as new rules take effect and/or new information, materials, and methods become available. Thus, neither the ACDS nor individual contributors validate the accuracy or sufficiency of the information provided, nor do they make any warranty, guarantee, or other representation, express or implied, with respect to its fitness for any particular purpose. ALLERGIC CONTACT DERMATITIS Testing has shown that you have allergic contact dermatitis. This means that you are particularly sensitive to even extremely small amounts of these substances: • Methylchloroisothiazolinone-Methylisothiazolinone You are so sensitive to these substances that if your skin comes in contact just one time with any of them, you may develop a rash. Itching, pinkness, small bumps, or blisters may appear within 4 hours, but usually starts 1 to 3 days after exposure to the substance. The skin reaction lasts from 2 to 8 weeks, even if you don’t come into contact with the substance again. If you have had many exposures over time, it may take 3 to 6 months for your skin to get completely better after you start avoiding the substances. During those months, your skin will slowly get better, but you will probably have multiple brief flare ups of your rash, even as it is overall improving. If you come in contact with one of the substances again during that time, that can cause a significant set-back in your recovery. You were not sensitive to these substances for most of your life. Allergy develops from repeated exposure. You were exposed enough times to these substances that you became sensitive to them. You must remember that just because you weren’t sensitive to something in the past doesn’t mean that you are not sensitive to it now. Your body has changed and is sensitive now to things that didn’t cause you trouble before. You will be allergic to them for the rest of your life. You will always need to avoid them. It is very important to learn how you can avoid the substances that cause your allergic reaction. USING THIS LIST The products in this list are SAFE FOR YOU TO USE.

  • Consumer Propensity Report by Category
    Consumer Propensity Report Marketing and Merchandising Intelligence for Local Business The Consumer Propensity Report (CPR) shows the lifestyle, product, and psychographic likelihood indices for the consumers within the trade area being analyzed. Major retail, restaurant, grocery, and consumer packaged goods firms use this very same information to drive marketing and merchandising decisions. Each analyzed item is assigned a propensity index score with 100 being average. For example, if the consumers within a trade score a 120 for a given analysis item you know that those consumers are 20% more likely to participate in or purchase that item than the average American household. A propensity index score of 80 would indicate that those consumers would be 20% less likely than the average American household to participate in or purchase that item. Information is provided for 32 major categories with over 4,800 total line items. Please note that line items are based upon national‐level purchasing and lifestyle characteristics. These line items are then correlated to the underlying household characteristics of the consumers within the trade area being analyzed. Some line items may not be necessarily relevant or available currently in your market or region. The index score in these situations serves to indicate the degree to which the consumers would participate in or purchase that item if it were relevant and available. Often this is taken as an opportunity for expansion of a similar brand or concept within the category. CPR Categories Apparel

  • Travel Writing 1700–1830 an Anthology
    OXFORD WORLD’ S CLASSICS TRAVEL WRITING, 1700–1830 DURING the eighteenth century British travellers fanned out to every corner of the world, driven by diverse motives: scientific curi- osity, exploration, colonization, trade, diplomacy, and tourism, which began to flourish during this period. Those at home read voraciously in travel literature, which informed curious Britons about their nation’s activities overseas. The Empire, already estab- lished in the Caribbean and North America, was expanding in India and Africa and founding new outposts in the Pacific. Readers also enjoyed reports of travel closer to home: tours of the Continent and the British Isles themselves, whose beauty spots fuelled the rising fashion for picturesque and sublime scenery. Travel writing fed readers’ desire for adventure and exoticism and reinforced their pride in their nation’s achievements. It addressed scientific questions and gave philosophers food for thought. Political controversies were fought out in travel books, including the slavery question and the French Revolution debate. Above all, travellers’ descriptions of the wider world reveal their perception of themselves. Selected authors include Daniel Defoe, Joseph Addison, Mary Wortley Montagu, Samuel Johnson, James Boswell, James Cook, William Bartram, Mary Wollstonecraft, Dorothy Wordsworth, Walter Scott, Olaudah Equiano, Mungo Park, Ann Radcliffe, Matthew ‘Monk’ Lewis, and Frances Trollope. ELIZABETH A. BOHLS is Associate Professor of English at the University of Oregon. She is the author of Women Travel Writers and the Language of Aesthetics, 1716–1818, recently translated into Japanese, and of articles on travel writing and the novel. She is currently finishing a book on identity and place in writings from the colonial British Caribbean.

  • LASER HAIR REMOVAL Treatment Instructions
    LASER HAIR REMOVAL Treatment Instructions LASER HAIR REMOVAL PRE TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS • No tanning, sunless tanning or tanning beds. Tanning should be avoided for 4-6 weeks prior to treatment. Self-tanning creams and sprays need to completely fade. An SPF of 30+ should be applied generously 20 minutes prior to sun exposure. • Avoid Certain Medications. Medicated Creams (i.e. glycolic, tretinoin, retinol, some antibiotics) that make you photosensitive should be stopped one week prior to treatment. • No facials, peels or laser skincare treatments. No peels or strong skin care treatments in laser hair removal areas for two weeks before and after laser treatments. • No waxing, tweezing, bleaching or threading. Lasers target the pigment melanin in the hair beneath the surface of the skin. Do not wax, tweeze, bleach, thread or use depilatory agents before, during or after your treatment. Shaving is the only recommended hair removal method when performing laser hair removal. • Do not use lotion, cream, make-up or deodorant on areas to be treated. Come to your appointment with clean skin free of any topical products. Any products applied to the skin can obstruct or refract laser light negatively and decrease effectiveness of the treatment. LASER HAIR REMOVAL POST TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS Immediately after treatment there may be mild redness and swelling at the treatment site, which could last up to 2 hours or longer. Redness can last up to 2-3 days. The treated area may feel like a sunburn. Anywhere from 5-20 days after the treatment, shedding of the surface hair may occur and will appear as new hair growth.

  • Picking the Best Self Tanner
    Picking the Best Self Tanner April 16, 2010 | These days, we all know the dangers of basking in the sun. But that doesn’t mean we’ve given up on the perfect golden glow.

But with tanning lotions, bronzers and tanning sprays on the market, getting the perfect sun-kissed look can get complicated and confusing. Not anymore. Check out our comprehensive guide to self-tanners for all the information you need on the best self tanner for you. Or, go directly to our self tanner product recommendations >> First things first.

So that’s how sunless tanners work….but which one should you choose? These are the primary choices available.
