How to judge whether you have sensitive skin? Do you know what kind of sensitive skin you have?

Everyone’s skin condition is different, but no matter what kind of skin it is, it is not as uncomfortable as sensitive skin. I can't touch almost anything, and my sensitive skin has caused a lot of trouble in my life. So, how do you determine if you have sensitive skin?

How to tell if you have sensitive skin

The skin is thin and has red blood streaks. Once the skin is exposed to external stimuli such as sun exposure, cold, heat, skin care products, etc., it is prone to symptoms such as erythema, papules, capillary dilation, itching, stinging, burning, and tightness. Especially when the seasons change, the skin becomes itchy and red for no reason. If you have these conditions, you can basically be diagnosed with sensitive skin.

Do you know what kind of sensitive skin you have?

1. Hereditary sensitive skin: Hereditary sensitive skin is a congenital skin sensitivity problem. The skin is naturally fragile and may appear on the face, neck, elbows and knees, and even the whole body.

2. Sensitive skin caused by environmental irritation: Mainly due to the influence of some environmental factors, such as cold, heat, and rapid temperature changes, the face can quickly become flushed.

3. Contact sensitive skin: After a period of latent period after using cosmetics, allergic reactions occur, and sometimes allergic reactions to hard water and wool fabrics.

4. Red and sensitive skin: The skin is thin and the capillaries are dilated. If you exercise excessively, get emotionally excited, eat spicy food, or are stimulated by alcohol, etc., the facial skin will become red and hot. It can only be said that this is too fragile... Therefore, you should eat less high-protein, spicy food, hot fruits, etc.

5. Dehydrated and sensitive skin: The skin has an unbalanced distribution of water and oil, causing dryness and flaking. Fine lines will appear due to dryness, and it is not surprising to see sagging and rapid aging of the skin. When hydrating the skin, you should also replenish oil appropriately to achieve the purpose of locking in moisture. Choose some highly hydrating and non-greasy skin care products to avoid increasing the oil burden on the skin.

Tips for sensitive skin

The skin is most likely to become sensitive when the seasons change, with symptoms such as itching, dryness, flaking, and even red spots. Direct skin contact with pollen, dust, alcohol, etc. will cause a stress response. Therefore, the selection of cosmetics for sensitive skin is definitely more troublesome than for other skin types. They should be alcohol-free, less irritating, and even the ingredients they contain should be carefully analyzed. Of course, the fewer ingredients, the better. Before choosing cosmetics, you should wipe them behind your ears or on the inside of your arms to see if your skin will have an allergic reaction. Many people don't try them at all to save trouble, which eventually leads to severe allergies on the entire face, and it's too late to cry.

There are many reasons that cause allergies. Seasonal changes, temperature changes, sunburn, pollen, etc. are all major causes of allergies. You still need to distinguish which type of sensitive skin you have. It is best to go to the dermatology department of the hospital to check what your allergens are so that you can prescribe the right medicine. Pay attention to these aspects.
