SENSITIVE SKIN FAQS

What are the signs of sensitive skin?

There are several signs that you may have sensitive skin. You may experience irritation in the forms of redness, itching, stinging or burning. Your skin may feel tight and dry—either all over or in specific areas. Perhaps you break out in rashes or bumps from time to time. You may react to certain ingredients in products such as fragrances, preservatives or alcohol.

What causes sensitive skin?

Sensitive skin can be triggered by a wide variety of factors, and it’s often different for everyone. It’s important to create a skincare routine for sensitive skin that won’t irritate your face. Your skin may react to fragrances or other ingredients in your skin care products. Flare ups might be triggered by stress, hormones, aging, climate, sun exposure and even chemicals in cleaning products or laundry detergents. These factors can all effect the skin’s outer protective barrier, which is the first layer of skin to be exposed to irritants, allergens and pollution.

What’s the best way to care for sensitive skin?
