Elimination diets can be a great tool for identifying food allergies or intolerances, but it's not just about what you eat—what you use on your skin and in your daily routine matters too. Many personal care products contain allergens that could interfere with your progress. Here are some products that are generally suitable for those on elimination diets, but please be sure to consult your allergy specialist before use.

For Skincare

Try Ego QV Ceramides Cleanser, QV Gentle Wash, Ego QV Moisturising Lotions, or if you prefer an emollient for dry skin use Epaderm, or Dermeze Treatment Ointment. 

For Personal Care

Consider deodorants such as Dermal Therapy's Crystal Deodorant or Ego QV Naked Deodorant Roll On.

For Hair Care

The Royal Price Alfred Hospital recommends Ego QV Gentle Shampoo and Gentle Conditioner.

For Sunscreen

Options include La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL and Cancer Council Sensitive sunscreen. 

For Oral Care

Consider Alfree Free Toothpaste or Plain Toothpaste which comes in regular and sensitive options.
