Sensitive Skin

Many people with the widely accepted skin types of dry, oily, combination and normal believe they have sensitive skin and using our skin expertise, we have categorised the three degrees of skin sensitivity:

First degree: Sensitive
Mainly fair complexion, fine skin that tends to become red in the sun, often stings, experiences sensations of tightness or reacts to potent skin care products.

Second degree: Intolerant
With the slightest external stress factor, it starts to heat up or flare up.  Eczema-prone skin and Rosacea sufferers are in this category too.

Third degree: Allergic
A fragrance, preservative or even sun filter contained in a skin care product can cause allergic reactions, itching, redness, skin eruptions or rashes.

3 levels of sensitivity

It is important to understand where in this categorisation your skin state lies.  Whether you have dehydrated skin, skin concerns or scarring etc, we can help determine the best range of products for the skin concerns you are encountering.  Our Quality Charter provides more detail about our commitment to dermatology.
