MAKE-UP FOR SENSITIVE SKIN: SIMPLE RULES TO KEEP IT HEALTHY

Sensitive skin is more exposed to external stresses, and foundation can be a valuable tool for keeping it in tip-top shape.

Sensitive skin tends to react strongly to external stimuli and this is generally caused by changes in the skin’s barrier function which make it more exposed to external agents and potentially irritating endogenous factors. So, we are talking about skin with extremely fragile defences which - more often than not - affects women.

So, when it comes to applying make-up to sensitive skin, it is crucial that we follow some basic rules to ensure that the make-up does not cause any problems, especially in regards to any ingredients it may contain or, sometimes, poor quality products.
