For example, a rash, tight skin that bursts easily, skin irritants that feel irritated when using skin care products that make it difficult to tell if it's allergic, or sensitive skin.

So is sensitive skin the same as allergies?

The answer is no! These are two different concepts.

Skin sensitivity is a manifestation of skin immunity and decreased resistance

In medical occupational expressions, the skin has long been very unloaded due to external stimuli and is prone to stabilization, itching, redness, burning and other overt syndromes. and accompanied by

Mild peeling, erythema.

Most sensitive skin is the result of poor skin care. For example, frequent use of cleansing cleansers or products with high concentrations of fruit build up, so healthy skin becomes increasingly sensitive.

Allergy is a phenomenon in which the human body reacts abnormally to external stimuli

For example, certain medications, foods, gases, or allergic reactions to specific substances. Common allergic dermatitis occurs in the skin is redness, itching, pain, hives, eczema, etc.

According to the survey, in analyzing the severity of sensitive muscles of Chinese women, 43% of them were found to be mild allergies, which means: many spring skin allergies are not real allergies, more skin is affected by the external environment, resulting in reaction.

So, how can we carry out prevention and first aid in the spring, a period of high skin sensitivity?
