Sensitive, dehydrated
skin
In industrialised countries, over half of women claim to have sensitive skin. Symptoms include discomfort, redness, tightness and even prickling. To soothe the fragile epidermis, choose hydrating products for sensitive skin.
Focus on...
Dehydrated skin: when your face loses its radiance.
The epidermis is made up of a large proportion of water. When this water is lacking, the skin becomes vulnerable. This level of hydration must therefore be restored.
True/False
Sensitive skin is allergenic skin
FALSE
The hyper-reactivity of sensitive skin is not linked to an allergy but to an abnormal excitability of the skin’s nerve endings. It can be of environmental, vascular or contact origin or be linked to an atopic skin.
Dehydrated skin and dry skin mean the same thing
FALSE (and TRUE)
Dehydrated skin is skin that lacks water. Dry skin is skin that is lacking in lipids. However, some dry skins can also lack water and therefore be both dry and dehydrated.
