Sensitive skin is a skin type that (over)reacts to external factors. Sensitive skin can occur anywhere on the body, but it usually involves the face. It occurs when the skin's natural barrier function is disrupted, causing moisture loss and allowing irritants to enter the skin.
Symptoms may include redness, burning, itching, scaling and prickling. Symptoms are compounded by factors to which the face is most exposed, ranging from sunlight over lifestyle and diet to some ingredients in cosmetics and cleansing products.
Understanding more about the causes of sensitive skin and the factors that can aggravate it, as well as the right treatment, can help get the skin back into balance.
