Question:

Has anyone ever gotten a allergic reaction to body paint?

Last night me and my friend wrote all over ourselves with body paint and today we broke out in an extremely itchy rash and our arms are turning slightly purple. should we go see a doctor?


Answers:

You may be allergic to cobalt (or blue cobalt). I've never used the stuff but know I'm allergic to it. For this reason I can't get a tattoo, it is a colouring that is used in the ink. There is also balsam of peru which is closely associated with it. You should get a skin test to be on the safe side. I'm allergic to perfume as well, don't rule anything out.
