Contact allergy to sodium cocoamphoacetate present in an eye make-up remover.

This is a case report of a contact allergic reaction on the face due to a skin cleansing product containing the amphoteric surfactant sodium cocoamphoacetate, occurring in an atopic woman with multiple contact sensitivities.
