Sensitive Skin Care

Sensitive skin is characterised by a skin that is not able to tolerate harsh environmental conditions, chemicals or certain food ingredients too. It is also described as when the skin overreacts to the irritants or allergens on the normal protective skin barrier so severely that the skin becomes inflamed. This is because the skin’s natural barrier becomes weak or is broken down by triggers. Sensitive skin type is easily triggered by environmental factors like sun, heat, wind, cold and pollution. Also, hormonal changes, dehydration and certain medications can lead to a sensitive skin. People with this skin type usually have skin redness, rashes, swollen and itchy skin.

How to Take Care of Sensitive Skin

Look at the below mentioned skin care routine for sensitive skin:

• Use a cleanser that is formulated with light ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides. Make sure to cleanse your face twice a day with cold water.
• Apply a lightweight moisturiser that is non- comedogenic and hypoallergenic in nature. You may apply it twice a day.
• Before going outside in the day, use sunscreen with a SPF of at least 30. For sensitive skin, sunscreen is a must as sun rays may cause sunburns that may make your skin uncomfortable.
