All About Sensitive Skin

Hey lovelies! If you’re among the 50% of Aussies dealing with sensitive skin, you’re definitely not alone. Sensitive skin can be tricky, but let’s break it down.

What Makes Skin Sensitive?
Sensitive skin is basically your skin’s way of throwing a fit over external stuff, like products or the environment. It’s often most noticeable on your face, and if your skin barrier is thin or has taken a hit, it can react to things that usually wouldn’t bother normal skin.

Sometimes, your skin might just be having a rough day. That’s called “sensitised” skin, and it can happen when your barrier gets damaged by harsh conditions. The good news? With the right care and by ditching the irritants, your skin can bounce back!

Symptoms to Look Out For

• Blotchy, pink or red patches
• Itchy sensations
• Broken veins on your nose and cheeks
• Tightness, redness, or stinging in the heat or sun
• Dry, flaky, or sore spots

Why Is My Skin Acting Up?
There are a ton of reasons your skin might be sensitive, including:

• Genetics: If fam members have eczema or psoriasis, you might be in the club too.
• Irritating Products: Some cosmetics can be a total no-go.
• Harsh Chemicals: From cleaning supplies to certain ingredients in skincare.
• Weather: Extreme temps and pollution can throw your skin off balance.
• Stress: Yeah, it’s a biggie.
• Diet: Not getting the right nutrients? That can lead to sensitivity.
• Hormonal Changes: Things can get wild during pregnancy or stressful times.

How to Care for Sensitive Skin
It’s crucial to focus on building your skin's defense instead of just treating the redness. Try a simple routine that helps restore your skin’s protective barrier and soothes those angry patches.
