SENSITIVE SKIN

Sensitive skin reacts easily to external influences such as weather, stress or skin care products
and may experience redness, itching or irritation. The skin may feel tight and vulnerable
temperature changes and chemical substances. It is important to use gentle,
perfume-free products that soothe and strengthen the skin barrier. Proper skin care helps
with reducing irritation and protecting the skin against future reactions.

Rosacea, sensitive skin and perioral dermatitis are three different skin conditions,
but they can have similar symptoms such as redness and irritation. Here are the differences:

Rosacea
is a chronic skin disease that typically manifests itself as persistent redness,
visible blood vessels and small bumps on the face, especially on the nose, cheeks and forehead.
It can be triggered by heat, stress, sun and certain foods.

Sensitive skin
is not a disease, but a skin type that reacts easily to
environmental factors or skin care products, causing redness, itching or burning.
The reactions are often temporary and can be triggered by anything from weather changes to
chemical ingredients in cosmetics.

Perioral dermatitis
is an inflammatory condition that occurs as red,
pimple-like rash around the mouth and sometimes the nose and eyes.
It is often triggered by overuse of strong skin care products,
especially steroid creams.
