The True Science of Sensitive Skin

Sensitivity Is Communication, Not Defect

Sensitive skin isn’t fragile—it’s perceptive. It reacts because it’s wired to sense and respond to change. When you experience burning, flushing, or stinging, it’s not random—it’s your skin’s communication system working overtime to protect you.

Science now recognizes that sensitive skin is not just a surface issue but a neurological and immunological condition. It involves the barrier, the microbiome, and even your emotional state.
