Proper care
You definitely won't envy the owners of sensitive skin. It is necessary to constantly think about how a person will react to changing weather conditions or to substances in cosmetics.
Depending on the causes of sensitivity, dermatologists distinguish four types:
- Weak skin. May be very thin and dry from birth. Due to a deficiency in fat production, there is a lack of protective pigment. There is weak skin in redheads and blondes with green or blue eyes.
- Diseases. Sensitive skin can become due to internal problems in the body: gastrointestinal diseases, allergies, endocrine disorders, foci of local infection.
- Wrong care. The destruction of the protective layer of the epidermis occurs due to the lack of basic care or the use of cosmetics based on mineral oils.
- Stress. If the increase in skin sensitivity occurs suddenly, and then disappears after a short period of time, then the cause is most often considered to be stress and nervousdisorders.
The most correct decision is a medical examination. Depending on the reasons for the appearance of sensitivity, only a dermatologist can advise suitable cosmetics. Pay attention to all stages of cleansing, because they are the basis for he althy and radiant skin. Always protect your face from direct sunlight.
