How can I fix sensitive skin?
Focus on a gentle routine using fragrance free products and avoid over-washing or harsh ingredients. Keeping skincare simple and consistent helps repair the skin barrier and reduce reactions.
What are the 5 signs of skin sensitivity?
Common signs include redness, itching, burning or stinging, tightness and dryness after using products or exposure to weather. Skin may also react easily to fragrance or friction.
What are the 4 types of sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin may be reactive, inflamed, barrier-impaired or allergy-prone. Each type responds differently, but all benefit from gentle care and barrier protection.
Why is my skin suddenly so sensitive to everything?
Sudden sensitivity can be caused by stress, weather changes, over-exfoliation, new products or a weakened skin barrier. Hormonal changes and underlying skin conditions can also play a role.
What deficiency causes sensitive skin?
Low levels of nutrients such as vitamin D, vitamin B12 or essential fatty acids may affect skin health. If sensitivity persists, a healthcare professional can help assess underlying causes.
