Dry sensitive skin feels tight because of the deficient lubrication and has a tendency to develop small expression lines that will evolve into wrinkles. Moreover, such a skin specificity makes one more exposed to allergic reactions, rashes, capillaries breaking and sudden flushes. Therefore, the care for dry sensitive skin could prove quite a challenge at times. It is worth mentioning the fact that it affects people regardless of age, color or gender.

The choice of cleansing, moisturizing and make up products has to follow rigorous steps when you suffer from dry sensitive skin. First of all, stop using all sorts of products for skincare; the more the chemicals one comes into contact with, the higher the risk of irritations. All the products have to be fragrance free and hypo-allergenic so that you don’t develop red irritation blotches.

The blusher and the foundation could pose some problems for dry sensitive skin.

Avoid using too much make-up in order to allow the skin to breathe adequately. When shopping for make up, other than the hypo-allergenic feature, you should also pay attention that they be oil free. The foundation or the blusher should be water-based because thus, they wouldn’t clog the pores. Furthermore, dry sensitive skin is not compatible with oil absorbing foundations because these tend to dry the skin by eliminating the supposed sebum excess.

The skin dermis specific to dry sensitive skin should not be exfoliated or treated with astringent products. And we could say the same thing about cleaning too: over-washing the face means eliminating the natural oils that lubricate the tissues, which will result in an accelerated dryness.

Furthermore, the daytime moisturizer should have an incorporated SPF (sun-protection factor) of at least 15. Unfortunately, sunbathing will not be a favorite pastime for people who suffer from skin dryness.

Premature aging and skin problems are the main consequences of sunbathing. And finally, be careful when you change skincare products. Once you have made up your mind to switch to a different skincare brand, it is important to test the product on a small skin portion to check whether you react allergically to it or not.
