Avoid using water that causes allergies or increase water filtration. When water allergies are found, avoid using water to prevent further allergies. And increase water filtration efficiency to filter out contaminants that cause water allergies.
Avoid facial scrubs or anything that irritates the skin. Scrubbing is a strong irritant to the skin because the skin becomes more sensitive and the pores are open even more.

Stop using skin creams and use topical medications. When you experience a water allergy, stop using skin creams that contain perfume because they can irritate your skin more.
Eat foods that strengthen your skin. In addition to taking care of the skin from the outside, you also need to take care of the inside because sometimes water allergies can be cause by a weak immune system, causing the skin to become weak.
