Treatment for Sensitive Skin
More than 50% of people classify their skin as sensitive. This is due to an increasing number of skin irritants in our environment and nutrition as well as many synthetic and chemically modified substances in skincare products. Sensitive skin is more reactive and prone to redness, rashes, itching, and burning.
Sensitive areas of the skin include the skin around the eyes, lips, neck, and chest. This skin is very thin and becomes inflamed easily. However, many people suffer from sensitive skin all over the face. Skin sensitivity can also be one of the symptoms of very frequent skin alterations such as seborrheic skin and rosacea.
Areas with sensitive skin need more nutrition as they may be dehydrated. In the case of sensitive and mature skin, the firmness of the hydrolipidic film might have diminished. The ideal treatment is the Smooth Addiction balm in this case, complementing the products below.

Skincare Routine For Sensitive Skin
20% of the population has a skin condition called flushing (hyperemia), which can be seen as temporary redness of the skin. Our creams contain medicinal clays, which help to remove the accumulated toxicity in the skin. This process stimulates the blood flow, which can be seen as redness on the skin’s surface. This is not an allergic reaction, but a highly beneficial process that trains the fragile capillaries of the skin. In this case, we recommend starting the treatment without the use of creams, except the makeup cream Perfecting Illumination, which can be used also in case of sensitive skin.
