Hello. I am at home now. I couldn’t come to the office because of bad allergies. It has been more than a week and it’s not getting better. Funny thing, my mom was very concerned about it because she doesn’t want me to be sad if it turns out that I am allergic to perfumes. Chill, mom. I asked the doctor and he said it might be because of the cavities on my teeth. Ugh. I’m seeing a dentist soon.
Anyway, seeing my mom so concerned about allergies and perfumes make me think of the popular beliefs that perfume cause skin allergies. Which is not wrong if we put everything as we want, BUT, there’s a big but here, we’re not. The research on this matter is very advanced and the regulation people are working very hard. If you guys know about IFRA, that’s only one of many regulations we have to obey. Btw, they just updated their regulation so now we have to adapt to the new regulation. Anyway, we also have our company’s internal regulations added to the list.
So, you know how I feel every time I see this “propaganda”. Meh.
Anyway, one day out of the office and I miss my work already. I think I’m a workaholic. But I just love fragrance so much. I wish I’m getting better today so I can come back to the office tomorrow. Currently, I am doing fragrances for fine and lotion. Interesting ones, cannot stop thinking about it.
I’m going to rest now. My eyes are glued. I think it’s the medicine.
Cheers,
Gia.
