Characteristics of sensitive skin
01. Red skin
Redness in the skin is a very common characteristic of sensitive skin. If you struggle with skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, these will cause red and irritated skin, where you may find that your skin is generally more sensitive. Redness can also be caused by skin contact with care products or certain chemicals that your skin does not like, which is also an indication that you have sensitive skin.

02. Stinging and burning skin
A burning or stinging sensation in your skin is your skin's way of telling you that something is wrong. The sensation can be triggered by many different factors, including a skin condition or skin contact with a product that your skin cannot tolerate. It is certainly not pleasant to have skin that feels stinging and burning. If you have experienced this, it may well have been triggered by using a product containing alcohol or perfume, which are two components particularly known to provoke sensitive skin.

03. Itchy skin
Itchy skin is another characteristic of sensitive skin. It can be triggered by a skin condition or contact eczema. Sensitive skin will be less protected against external irritations, which is why the skin can easily feel itchy. It can be challenging to determine what causes itchy skin. Therefore, it is always a good idea to contact a dermatologist who can help advise and diagnose.

Sensitive skin
Sensitive skin is often more reactive and can be hypersensitive to external influences. It can become red, irritated, or feel tight, especially upon contact with certain products or environmental factors. Caring for sensitive skin requires mild and soothing products to minimize the risk of irritation and maintain the skin's delicate balance. Therefore, always perform a patch test on your skin before starting to use a new product. This will help you determine that the product does not cause a skin reaction.
