Sensitive skin or allergic skin?
Sensitive skin and allergic skin are two different skin conditions, but they may share some common characteristics and occur together.
Sensitive skin is a type of skin that is more susceptible to reactions to external factors such as temperature changes, cosmetics, detergents, allergens and others. Sensitive skin is not necessarily allergic.
Allergic skin is skin that reacts to allergens, that is, substances that cause allergies in a person. Examples of allergens include pollen, dust, perfume, cosmetic ingredients, foods or insects. Allergic skin requires identifying allergens and avoiding contact with them.
How to care for sensitive and allergic skin?
Care of sensitive and allergic skin requires special attention and the use of gentle products to avoid irritation or rashes. People with sensitive skin tend to develop allergic reactions, so it is important to choose hypoallergenic products with reduced allergenic potential. In the case of allergic skin, the occurrence of persistent skin problems, it is worth consulting a dermatologist for appropriate treatment and advice. Diagnosis of individual allergens plays a key role here.
Hypoallergenic products, or what kind of products?
Hypoallergenic products use ingredients with low allergenic potential, which means that such products are very unlikely to cause allergic reactions. Allergens, artificial colors, parabens or silicones are avoided in this type of product. It is also very important to choose the right foaming ingredients that will be gentle on the skin, we, for example, gave up SLS and SLES. Keep in mind, however, that no product on the market can 100% guarantee the absence of such reactions, as they are highly individual and related to the impact of other factors, such as diet.
