What is sensitive skin? How is it different from other skin types?

During this time of year when the seasons are changing, your skin may become dry, stingy, and more susceptible to irritation.
Even if you normally have normal skin type, your skin tends to become unstable during this time of year.
Have you ever wondered if you might have sensitive skin?

But what is the definition of sensitive skin?
Where is the line between normal skin and dark skin?

Today I'm going to tell you how to tell if you have sensitive skin or not.

What is sensitive skin?
Generally speaking, it means a condition in which the skin's barrier function is weakened and even minor skin problems are likely to occur.

What is the difference between normal skin and sensitive skin?
Normally, the stratum corneum on the surface of the skin keeps the skin moisturized and protects it from external stimuli.
Sensitive skin has a disrupted barrier function, which makes it easier for moisture to escape and makes the skin more susceptible to external stimuli.


Sensitive Skin Symptoms
<Skin overreaction>

・My skin feels tight after washing my face. ・My skin sometimes stings when using lotion. ・My skin is easily irritated when using new cosmetics. ・My skin becomes red, itchy, and dry at the change of seasons. ・My skin gets itchy when I sweat.

■ From dry skin to sensitive skin <br data-mce-fragment="1">Dry skin lacks moisture, causing the surface to become flaky.
When the skin dries, its barrier function weakens, leaving it more vulnerable to external stimuli.
As a result, many people develop sensitive skin that reacts to even the slightest external stimuli.
