SENSITIVE SKIN

Sensitive skin is characterised by heightened reactivity to environmental, chemical, or physical triggers, resulting in redness, stinging, burning, or itching. It is a symptom rather than a diagnosis and can overlap with conditions like eczema, rosacea, or contact dermatitis.  

Causes 

- Compromised Barrier: Dryness or lipid depletion reduces the skin’s ability to protect against irritants.

- Underlying Conditions: Eczema, rosacea, and allergic or irritant contact dermatitis are common causes.

- Triggers: Fragrances, dyes, harsh cleansers, extreme temperatures, and stress can provoke symptoms.

- Genetics & Age: Some individuals are genetically predisposed, and sensitivity may increase with age as the barrier weakens.
