What do we mean by skin irritation?

Skin irritation can occur at all ages and occur suddenly. It starts when your skin's protective barrier function weakens. As a result, bacteria, allergens, chemicals and other contaminants get a better grip on your skin. Symptoms of irritated skin often include flaking, swelling and redness. In addition, it can also become itchy.

Don'ts with skin irritation

Irritated skin is very sensitive, so it is important to treat this type of skin with care. Be careful with harsh cleansers such as soaps; even detergents can cause irritation. Perfumes and preservatives can also irritate the skin. Excessive washing with plain water can also be detrimental to irritated skin. This is because water can paradoxically cause dehydration, which can lead to increased irritation, redness and itching.

Therefore, do not cleanse the skin too often and use mild products suitable for this skin type.

How to care for irritated skin

Gentle cleansing is the first step to taking good care of your skin. Mild products are essential for irritated skin. For cleansing, for example, we recommend a cleansing milk or oil. The hannah Cleansing Oil is a facial oil that delicately cleanses.

After using a cleansing milk, we recommend using the hannah Sensitive Skin Lotion. This lotion not only soothes the skin, but also increases the resistance of your natural protective layer.

After cleansing the skin and using lotion, it is important to nourish and protect it with a cream.

A soothing mask, once or twice a week, can further calm the skin.

Finally, it is very important to properly protect the skin from sunlight. Sun rays can cause skin irritation to worsen. Good sun protection prevents this while protecting you from harmful UVA and UVB rays.

Be careful with skin irritation: protect your skin properly from the sun and don't cleanse your skin too often. With the right products, you can care for irritated skin gently, keeping problems under control or even reducing them.
