Why some people have repeated skin allergies
1, ageing, so that the skin secretion function degenerates, the skin in the years of wear and tear, will become thinner, its protective layer function also weakened.
2, long-term exposure to sunlight or air pollution, smoke, ash, ultraviolet UVA and UVB, as well as infrared light, can damage the skin, because they produce free ions can destroy the skin’s lipid protective layer.
3, poor quality cosmetics or improper drug damage.
4, physiological factors, stress, mental tension and emotional depression, will weaken the skin’s natural resistance, resulting in its self-care function is also slowed. Such as endocrine disorders.
5, the weather: in the face of weather changes, the skin also needs extra adaptation, for example, in the cold weather, if the skin is not adequately moisturized, it is easy to be damaged.
6, additives: some skin care products in the ingredients such as antiseptic, dyes, emulsifiers and fragrances, may make the skin become sensitive.

What contingency measures should be taken for the phenomenon of skin sensitivity
1, should stop using all cosmetics, so that the skin has a buffer time, if you usually use hypoallergenic skin care products, you can continue to use; if it is the first time or occasionally sensitive phenomenon, and usually do not use hypoallergenic maintenance products, then we should choose to have anti-inflammatory, calming effect of skin-specific maintenance products (cosmetics – between cosmetics and pharmaceutical skin care products), after washing the face with water to use. If the phenomenon of persistent redness, you should go to the hospital for desensitization treatment, you can also fully wet cotton or gauze injectable saline, put on the sensitive parts of the face, this injectable saline, high safety, good permeability, has the function of reducing swelling, reducing redness, stabilizing the skin, generally speaking, a few days later, the redness will be eliminated.
2.Strengthening the skin’s resistance is also an effective basic countermeasure, such as getting enough sleep, eating a well-balanced diet, emotional harmony, staying away from polluted environments and allergens, and reducing skin irritation. Minor allergies will soon recover as long as they are handled properly, but in severe cases, you should seek medical attention quickly.
3. Do not use medication without permission. Without a dermatologist’s diagnosis, do not buy hormonal topical medication from a pharmacy on your own, which is a practice that harms the skin and should be applied under the guidance of a doctor. Because it is effective in suppressing inflammation, but prolonged use will produce side effects and harm to health.
How to take care of sensitive skin
1, to stay away from allergens. Because allergy symptoms will always exist, it is impossible to eradicate, but only at all times careful precautions to avoid contact with allergens that may cause allergies.
2. Be clear about the skin care products you use and their usage. Avoid substances that are highly efficacious, overly active and may cause skin irritation. Excessive and inappropriate use of strong cleansing products can destroy the natural protective tissue of the skin’s surface; overly active, cosmetics that accelerate blood circulation can also irritate the skin and cause damage. Do not use soap detergents such as medicated soap to wash your face, because surfactants make the master of decomposing keratin and should be strongly avoided. It is best to use emulsions, or non-soap soaps, which can adjust the pH and adapt to the skin. Products such as scrubs and exfoliants should be avoided. Use a simple cleansing and toning moisturizing procedure.

Some manufacturers have recently introduced sunscreens that contain fewer chemical ingredients and have physical ingredients that are relatively less irritating to the skin. Also avoid excessive exposure to the sun, because ultraviolet light penetration is particularly strong, frequent exposure to the sun will make the skin thinner and more easily stimulated.
4, careful use of cosmetics. For people with sensitive skin, it is best not to replace the cosmetics you are used to, if you want to use new cosmetics, you should first do a skin test, by applying the cosmetics to be used on the inside of the wrist where the skin is more delicate, left overnight or 2-3 days, to observe the reaction, if there is an abnormal reaction, such as inflammation, redness, rashes, etc., you must avoid using the cosmetics.
