Sensitive skin often manifests itself as redness, burning, or skin that easily reacts to products, weather, or stress. Here's a guide to common signs and causes of sensitive skin, and how a gentle, barrier-strengthening skincare routine can soothe irritation, reduce reactivity, and help your skin regain its balance.
Microbiome-strengthening routine for very dry and sensitive skin.
1.467,95 NOKSensitive skin is characterized by its tendency to react easily and quickly become red, tight, sore, or tingly. It may look completely normal yet still feel unbalanced or irritated. Often, sensitivity is due to a weakened skin barrier or a lack of sufficient moisture and lipids, which makes the skin more susceptible to external influences.
Sensitive skin does not necessarily mean dry skin; sensitivity can also occur in normal/combination skin. To soothe and strengthen sensitive skin, mild, barrier-strengthening, and hydrating skincare with skin-identical ingredients is needed.
Sensitive skin benefits from a very gentle cleanser. Only use cleanser when necessary, such as when applying makeup. Avoid washing your face in the morning.

About Sensitive Skin
-
Sensitive skin reacts more easily than non-sensitive skin, often with redness, stinging, itching, or a feeling of tightness. These reactions can be triggered by perfume, active ingredients, weather changes, or stress. Often, the skin barrier is weakened. With gentle skincare that helps strengthen the skin barrier, the skin can become less reactive over time.
-
A good cream for sensitive skin is mild, fragrance-free, and formulated without unnecessary additives. It should hydrate, soothe, and help strengthen the skin barrier without introducing ingredients the skin doesn't need. Look for skin-identical and barrier-supporting ingredients, and be cautious with active products if your skin feels irritated or reactive.

To soothe irritated skin, simplify your routine and remove anything that might be irritating the skin, especially products with fragrance and active ingredients. Stick to a mild cleanser and a soothing, moisturizing cream that helps strengthen the skin barrier. If the skin does not improve, or if you experience severe redness or other persistent problems, we recommend that you consult a doctor or dermatologist.
