Photos: Le Parisien/YouTube A young woman from Paris has shared photos showing the shocking disfigurement caused to her face by an allergic reaction to a common hair dye product. Nineteen-year-old Estelle stunned social media users in France after she posted on Facebook a sequence of alarming photos in which her face looks increasingly swollen and intoxicated. The English undergrad student almost died as a result of the allergic reaction she suffered to PPD - the abbreviation for paraphenylenediamine- a common compound found in 90 percent of hair dyes despite its known allergic risks. "Look, here I could still see; here I was struggling to breathe, " she told French daily Le Parisien in an interview as she scrolled through the photos on her phone. Days earlier Estelle had decided to go from blonde to brunette and bought a standard DIY hair colouring product at a supermarket in Val-de-Marne, on the outskirts of Paris. Having previously suffered a mild reaction to a hair dye, she decided to use the allergy test that comes with the product, but waited only 30 minutes before applying the dye, rather than the recommended 48 hours.
