No, you should not use Dettol on your face.
Dettol is a powerful disinfectant designed to kill germs on surfaces and wounds. It contains ingredients like chloroxylenol and isopropyl alcohol, which can be harsh and irritating to the delicate skin on your face.
Here's why you should avoid using Dettol on your face:
- Skin irritation: Dettol can cause redness, dryness, itching, and burning sensations on the face.
- Damage to the skin barrier: The strong chemicals in Dettol can strip away the natural oils and moisture from your skin, leaving it vulnerable to infections.
- Allergic reactions: Some people may experience allergic reactions to Dettol, leading to rashes, hives, and swelling.
Instead of using Dettol on your face, use a gentle cleanser specifically formulated for facial skin. If you have concerns about skin infections or breakouts, consult a dermatologist for advice on appropriate treatments.
