Sensitive Skin Explained

People with sensitive skin may have reactions to ordinary skincare products. After applying a skincare product, a person with sensitive skin may experience burning, stinging or itching. They may also have visible reactions such as redness and rash. There are a variety of factors that can lead to sensitive skin. Some evidence indicates that it may be related to genetics. Weather and environment can also play a role. There are no cures for sensitive skin, but there are things you can do to reduce the chances for irritation. Be sure to use gentle skincare products designed especially for sensitive skin. They are usually labeled "hypoallergenic." Make sure to avoid sun exposure. Finally, don't cleanse your skin more than twice a day and avoid scrubbing.
