Allergens cause symptoms of allergic diseases that depend on the substance (allergen) that triggers an allergic reaction and the organ system in which this substance manifests its activity. Most common allergic reactions occur due to fragrances found in body creams, shower gels and hair colors and detergents. Products containing allergen-free scents do not contain allergens that could cause allergic reactions.
