For many of you, taking care for your sensitive skin can be a real ordeal on a daily basis. Unsuitable cosmetics, external aggressors such as pollution and sudden changes in temperature, or an unbalanced diet can quickly put your epidermis to the test. As a result, your cutaneous barrier (or hydrolipidic barrier, named after the film that protects your skin) becomes fragile and no longer fulfills its dual function of protection and hydration. As a result, your skin overreacts to many factors. How to care for your sensitive skin and which moisturizer to choose Moisturizing care: how to hydrate your skin? Beauty Decoded gives you its opinions and advice on the best moisturizer.

What is sensitive skin?

Skin is considered sensitive when it reacts strongly to various stimuli, which may originate internally or externally. We can also speak of reactive skin. In most cases, this skin condition is temporary, but certain factors have a greater or lesser influence on its onset.

Internal factors

The excessive reactions of your epidermis can be caused by internal stimuli, directly linked to your organism:

  • Your diet and the beverages you consume (alcohol and coffee are far from your allies).
  • Allergies.
  • Complicated stress situations.
  • Possible hormonal imbalances.

External factors

Your body and your organism are not the only ones responsible for your skin's sensitivity. In fact, many external factors can be very aggressive and upset its balance:

  • Climatic conditions and temperature variations.
  • Skin intolerance to substances present in certain household or hygiene products.
  • Heating and air-conditioning systems, present everywhere.
  • Pollution.
  • UV rays emitted by the sun.
  • Hard water.

What are the signs of sensitive skin?

Sensitive or reactive skin can be recognized by the appearance of various symptoms, both visible and invisible. For example, it's easy to distinguish redness, scaling, patches or even small pimples. But sensitive skin can also feel a great deal of discomfort caused by tightness and itching. What's more, people with sensitive skin are more prone to the development of skin diseases such as eczema or psoriasis, which are much more widespread than you might think. Finally, all skin types - dry, combination or oily - can be prone to hypersensitivity.

How to care for sensitive skin

Sensitive skin can be painful for sufferers. That's why it's vital to take the utmost care of them, with a daily skin routine that's tailored to their needs.

A few reflexes to adopt

In addition to a healthy, balanced diet, you should drink plenty of water to deeply moisturize your skin. It's also advisable to cleanse regularly, gently and without excess (twice a day is more than enough). And if you wear make-up, be sure to remove it every night with a make-up remover. Don't hesitate to complement your skincare routine with micellar water, to rid your face of all the impurities accumulated during the day.

Mistakes to avoid

It's not always easy to determine which habits are really good for your skin. For example, it's advisable to avoid purifying scrubs and masks as much as possible, as they can be somewhat aggressive for reactive skin, which can then become even more sensitive. You should also check the ingredients in the beauty products you choose. In fact, some of them tend to activate your skin's sensitivity, without being able to soothe it. Choose fragrance-free products, which are less irritating, and avoid active ingredients such as retinol, glycolic acid or fruit acids.
