I didn't know SkinSafe App had that option, thanks for the info. I use the ACDS Camp list which my allergist signed me up with based upon my 5 Day Extended Patch Test results, these lists are a big help because in the beginning I didn't even know where to begin, yet they are not perfect in my case. Many recommended products may not have my listed allergens, but something else in the causes a reaction. Trial and error still goes on.

I looked up the SkinSafe app and I learned that we can submit our own list of allergens, we don't need a doctor to do this. I know certain contacts that were not positive on my 5 Day Extended Patch Test cause symptoms in me, for example: phenoxyethanol and wool both make me itch and lavender while in bloom or rubber tires give me an immediate headache simply walking past. Also some of us are avoiding certain elements that are known common allergens that we may be avoiding to postpone developing a reaction in the future can be filtered this way.
The site says we can send them a personalized list.
