Characteristics of sensitive skin Treatments for sensitive skin

In our daily life, many people have sensitive skin. It is difficult to care for sensitive skin. Sensitive skin has weaker adaptability to the environment. Different skin types require different skin care methods.

The biggest characteristics of sensitive skin are thin skin, less sebum secretion, dryness, obvious blood vessels, and low water retention capacity of the stratum corneum. It is easy to cause skin allergies when exposed to cosmetics or seasonal allergies, and the skin condition is prone to instability. Discomfort will cause itching, tingling, small rashes, etc.

1. Sufficient moisturizing

The thin stratum corneum of sensitive skin often cannot retain enough moisture. Whether in an air-conditioned room in summer or in a dry climate in winter, people with this skin type will feel the lack of water and dryness of the skin more acutely than ordinary people. Therefore, it is very important to strengthen moisturizing in daily maintenance. In addition to using lotions and skin care products containing moisturizing ingredients, you should also use moisturizing masks regularly. When the seasons change, you also need to pay attention to replacing unsuitable skin care products.

2. Nourishing by half

Modern cosmetics emphasize high efficiency, so their active ingredients must be able to penetrate the skin and act on the deep layers of the skin to produce high effects. For sensitive skin, high concentration and high effect mean high risk and high sensitivity. Therefore, when using cosmetics, people with this type of skin should dilute them by half before using them. In addition, sensitive skin is not suitable for products with too strong effects. Using non-functional products that do not add burden to the skin is the best way to restore skin health.

3. Strengthen protection

Sensitive skin has a thinner epidermis, lacks the ability to defend against ultraviolet rays, and is prone to aging. Therefore, you should pay attention to the use of sunscreen products. The ingredients of sunscreen are also one of the factors that cause irritation and sensitivity, so it is best not to apply it directly on the skin. It would be better to apply a layer of sunscreen after applying basic skin care products.

4. Reduce stimulation

Once the skin becomes dry, flaky or red, it means that the skin health is in danger. To restore the skin as quickly as possible, the best way is to reduce irritation, avoid excessive exposure to wind and sun, avoid eating irritating foods, stop using all current skin care products and cleaning products, and only let the skin contact water. Clean the skin with warm water every day for 1 week, and then apply Fukunda Sensitive Skin Cream to reduce damage. The ceramide contained in it can relieve allergies, speed up skin healing, and improve the skin's immunity and regeneration. Then the skin will use its original self-healing ability to gradually recover.

5. No exfoliation

Thin cuticle and cuticle damage are the main causes of sensitivity, so the first principle of skin care is to protect the cuticle from damage. Be careful not to overdo it when cleaning. Do not use soap-type lotions, because the surfactants they contain are experts in decomposing cuticles. It is best to use non-soap soaps, which can adjust the pH to suit our skin. As for scrubs and high-grade exfoliating products, stay away from them.

How to repair sensitive skin

1. Avoid excessive cleaning

Never use a facial cleanser with too strong a cleansing power. Do not wash your face more than twice a day. The temperature of the water for washing your face should not be too hot or too cold. A warm feeling is best. Try not to use cleansing masks and exfoliating products, and do not use toner containing alcohol or that feels slippery.

2. Hydration and Moisturizing

Sensitive skin is thinner and has weaker resistance. It absorbs water quickly and loses water quickly. That is to say, its moisture-locking function is significantly weaker than other skin types, and it needs repeated hydration to make the skin appear radiant.

3. Sun protection and isolation

Sensitive skin is very sensitive to ultraviolet rays, radiation, dust, and dirty air, so when you go out, you must wear an invisible coat for your skin to isolate it from all irritation and dirt.
