[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A correct facial beauty routine<\/strong><\/a>, to get visible results, must be customized<\/strong> and in favor of skin ( not against it!). To do that we have to give a “name” to our skin.\u00a0 Identify a specific problematic it’s not easy because skin tends to change over the life. Which are the characteristics of sensitive skin<\/strong>?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRightBig”]<\/p>\n

Sensitive skin, what it means?<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Sensitive skin<\/strong> (or Sensitive Skin Syndrome) is a skin condition that can appear at any age<\/strong>, both in dry skin or combination skin. Especially in industrialized countries<\/strong>, this skin problematic is more common than is thought. Indeed one third of the population suffer from skin sensibility, in different levels, and women are the most affected.<\/p>\n

Which are the commons symptoms?<\/h3>\n

Sensitive skin is very reactive. Who has this skin type can notice rednesses and constant skin rashes. The skin is<\/strong> dry<\/strong>, tight<\/strong>, it can easily flushes <\/b>and it’s predisposed to have allergic reactions with aggressives beauty products. Signs that can be the alarm bell for dermatological diseases like dermatitis\u00a0and rosacea<\/strong> (in this case consult your dermatologist).<\/p>\n

What trigger this skin condition?<\/h3>\n

The skin has a natural protective hydrolipidic film<\/strong>, a surface barrier, which protects it from the exterior world and reduce the water loss. Having sensitive skin condition is a result of an alterated epidermal barrier<\/strong>. The trigger can be genetic factors predisposing or environmental factors<\/strong> such as: climate changes, pollution, UV rays, or reasons linked to our lifestyle, like diet and the consume of alcohol.<\/p>\n

Most of the time the fault is linked to wrong cosmetic products<\/strong>, which stress the skin with aggressives ingredients like SLS and soaps that alterates the natural skin pH (between the 4,2 and 5,5).<\/p>\n

The result?<\/h3>\n

Dehydration <\/strong>and inflammatory stages <\/strong>that produce unpleasable and annoying feelings on the skin. A weak or compromised skin barrier allows the entry of irritating external aggressors (UV rays, toxins, microorganisms, smog, etc.) causing allergies and break outs.<\/p>\n

How to restore your natural skin barrier<\/h3>\n

Sensitive skin<\/strong> needs a careful skin routine<\/strong> with few focused treatments<\/strong> that soothe the skin inflammation, strengthen it from the inside.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRightBig”]<\/p>\n

Sensitive skincare routine<\/a>: the basic steps.<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]<\/p>\n

Cleanser<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In cosmetic routine<\/strong> prefer hypoallergenic products<\/strong>, those with no ingredients that can cause irritation<\/strong> and allergic reactions to skin<\/strong> like: synthetic fragrances<\/em>, alcohol<\/em>, preservative\u00a0<\/em>and essential oils<\/em>. Go for a cleanser free of aggressives surfactants<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>like SLS and SLES (avoid foaming cleansers<\/em> or the classic soap bar<\/em>).<\/p>\n

During this step, remind that extra hot water can dry out and irritate your skin. Water (especially the hard one) is able to alterate the natural oily layer of sebum<\/strong> on your skin. In the end, gently pad your face with a towel, without rubbing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]<\/p>\n

Moisturize<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]After cleansing, apply a rich moisturizing cream<\/strong><\/a> or a high concentration of natural oils<\/strong> to nourish and repair the physiological barrier of the skin, getting back the humidity lost. We recommend a broad-spectrum sunscreen<\/strong> offering protection against both UVA and UVB rays.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]<\/p>\n

Treatments<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Don’t overdo <\/strong>with aggressive cosmetic cares like exfoliation<\/strong>. Prefer chemical exfoliants<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, which turns out to be more gentle<\/strong> rather than physical exfoliants (like face scrubs<\/em> and exfoliators tools<\/em>).[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRightBig”]<\/p>\n
