The common hazards are as follows: allergic dermatitis For some people with allergic constitution, skin smearing is prone to local contact allergic reactions. Patients will have local erythema, papules, flushing and even swelling after painting the figure, and some will also have local spots.

Try to avoid sun exposure after painting, especially on exposed parts such as face and upper limbs. Try not to eat fish, shrimp, crab, celery, wild vegetables, coriander, sulfonamides and other foods and drugs that can increase photosensitivity during painting. Before painting, it is best to apply some protective agents to the skin, such as zinc oxide ointment and cod liver oil ointment, to reduce the irritation of oil painting pigments to the skin.
