Hypersensitivity

Sensitive Skin

Increased skin sensitivity is a condition in which the skin's barrier function is weakened, making it more reactive to external factors.

What does sensitive skin look like?

Sensitive skin may react with redness, burning sensations, or discomfort. Visually, it may appear thin and can be prone to irritation and flaking.

Sensitive skin: symptoms and signs

The main symptoms of sensitive skin include:

• redness and itching;
• dryness and a feeling of tightness;
• reactions to temperature changes;
• intolerance to certain cosmetic products.

The main signs of sensitive skin are therefore increased reactivity and discomfort even in response to relatively minor external factors.

Causes of sensitive skin

According to scientific publications, possible causes of skin sensitivity include:

• damage to the skin's lipid barrier;
• use of harsh cosmetic products;
• stress and hormonal changes;
• unfavorable external factors such as cold, wind, and sun exposure.

Skincare for sensitive skin

To help reduce signs of sensitivity, it is important to use gentle cleansing products, fragrance-free formulas or products with minimal fragrance and no alcohol, as well as skincare containing soothing ingredients such as panthenol, allantoin, chamomile extract, and Centella Asiatica.
