Sensitive skin is a pretty common condition that causes your skin to be more prone to redness, itchiness, inflammation and pain. It can often be triggered by skincare products, laundry detergent, and even certain materials. Additionally, sensitive skin can be caused by a number of different skin disorders, such as:
One of the most common causes of someone having sensitive skin is dry skin. This can be in specific patches of the body or all over. Although there is no treatment, keeping the skin hydrated with high-quality moisturises and very hydrating oils can help relieve dryness and sensitivity.
Atomic dermatitis, often called eczema, is a skin disorder that causes dryness, itchiness and irritation on the skin. Whether you have eczema all over or in certain areas, it can be extremely painful and irritating, making the skin extremely sensitive. Moisturising the skin often is the best way to help relieve symptoms of eczema.
Irritant contact dermatitis is a skin disorder that flares when a layer of the skin is damaged by coming into contact with something irritating, such as certain laundry detergent brands. This is usually shown on the skin by a rash appearing and can be helped by moisturising the affected area with a non-irritating moisturiser or oil.
Although there are many other sensitive skin disorders, the above are the most commonly seen. There is no set treatment, but deep moisturising ingredients designed for sensitive skin can help relieve many of the symptoms.
