Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin can be divided into two types: allergic and intolerant.
- Allergic skin will react to harsh chemicals used in some shaving, skin or hair care products. It may also react to irritants in household, garden and industrial products, as well as some foods and drink (including wine and beer!). When irritated, the skin will turn red and itchy. Always avoid harsh chemicals and look for products that are suited to sensitive skin.
- Intolerant skin is usually fair and will burn in the sun. It will go red when touched and will be prone to looking ruddy and weathered when exposed to the elements. This skin type is prone to broken blood vessels and needs extra soothing and protection.
- Quite often, sensitive skin is a combination of the two, and extra care must be taken especially when shaving or when exposing to the elements.
