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.

Sensitive skin is characterized by being easily reactive and can quickly become red, tight, sore or tingly. It can look completely normal but still feel unbalanced or irritated. Sensitivity is often due to the skin barrier being weakened or lacking sufficient moisture and oil, which makes the skin more susceptible to external influences. However, sensitive skin does not have to be dry, as sensitivity can also occur in normal/blendy skin. To soothe and strengthen sensitive skin, gentle, barrier-strengthening and moisturizing skin care with skin-friendly ingredients is needed.
