SENSITIVE SKIN

Sensitive skin is often referred to as skin that experiences sensitivity to the weather, environment and even topical skincare products. While it varies widely from person to person, sensitive skin may be reactive, irritable and intolerant.

While there is not a definitive understanding of the causes of sensitive skin, it can be aggravated by a variety of external and internal factors. Weather, UV rays and pollution can all affect sensitive skin as can stress, sleep and diet. Sensitive skin types often have a compromised skin barrier which can cause skin to be more susceptible to these aggressors.

Sensitive skin varies widely from person to person but is often characterized by visible redness and dryness. Sensitive skin may not always show visible signs and may simply have feelings of discomfort. These feelings and characteristics may be more prominent in certain areas of the face.

To care for sensitive skin, look for formulas that are efficacious yet gentle. Choose mild formulas that will help nurture and moisturize skin and find targeted formulations that can help reduce visible redness. It is also important to look for formulas that can help strengthen skin’s barrier so that it can be less susceptible to external aggressors.

For sensitive skin types, look for formulas that are gentle on skin and help strengthen skin’s barrier. Use a daily cleanser, toner, moisturizer and sun protection and look for treatments that can help reduce visible redness and comfort and nurture skin.
