SIGNS OF SENSITIVE SKIN

  • Thin skin texture 

  • A feeling of tightness

  • Redness or blotchiness

  • Flaking, peeling or cracking

  • Flushing, itching, or burning sensations

  • Small, rash-like bumps or breakouts 

Sensitive skin is a weak protective function of the skin that can be genetically predisposed. When skin is sensitive its protective outer layer lets irritants, microbes and allergens pass through, causing adverse reactions like stinging, pain, redness or flushing.

Genetically sensitive skin is considered more delicate because it has a lower amount of pigment, a thin epidermis, and blood vessels close to the skin surface, hence the appearance of redness.

You may notice that you’re also prone to asthma and allergies. Sensitive skin can be passed down through generations – but there are ways to manage it.

Sensitive skin can be a reflection of your environment. Frequent irritability from lifestyle, irritants, cosmetic ingredients including alcohol, lanolin, fragrance and artificial color and other external factors can contribute to sensitive skin.

Your skin can be affected by any of the following factors: stress, diet, smoking, dehydration, alcohol, cosmetic ingredients, pollution, airborne allergens, weather, temperature changes, physical effects of stress or hormonal fluctuations,rosacea, eczema, psoriasis. 

HOW TO CALM YOUR SENSITIVE SKIN

  • Find suitable/ good skin care for your skin. 
  • Wash face frequently when there is a sign of sebum production
  • Keep Hydrate 
  • Eat Clean 
  • Penetrate skin to lock the moisture 
  • Leave your skin breath when having sensitive skin (Avoid use any skin care)

The good news for sensitive skin is that the skin healthy is a pretty efficient filter of what’s good versus what’s bad on its own.
