Gentle care for sensitive facial skin

Very dry and sensitive skin can have various causes.It is often the result of a disrupted skin lipid barrier, which normally protects the skin from drying out by helping it absorb fluid and preventing the skin from releasing too much fluid into the environment.If this barrier is disturbed, it can no longer do its job properly and the skin dries out.Since the skin on the face is particularly thin and sensitive and we often unconsciously touch our faces with our hands, which come into contact with germs, allergens and irritants throughout the day, gentle and gentle cleansing is crucial to relieve the symptoms of sensitive and dry skin.

Possible symptoms for very dry skin:

The skin feels very dry and very tight.The more moisture is missing, the more cracked it becomes.Very dry skin begins to flake and can lead to inflammation.It is usually necessary to apply cream several times a day to alleviate the symptoms.

Signs of sensitive skin:

Sensitive skin is irritated, requires care and can be prone to reactions.She may show signs of allergy and react strongly to external stimuli.

Further advantages of the PHYSIOGEL® Calming Relief Gentle Cleansing Milk

In addition to moisture regulation, the skin lipid barrier fulfills another crucial function: it prevents pathogens, irritants and allergens from penetrating the body through the skin.However, if the skin is very dry and cracked, it also loses this protective function.This is particularly problematic if those affected suffer from a disease such as neurodermatitis or allergies.Allergens and other irritants then have an easy time overcoming the skin barrier and can therefore more easily and frequently lead to inflammation, eczema, swelling and redness.

Many potential irritants are actually harmless and can therefore be found everywhere in everyday life, but lead to allergic reactions in people with atopic predisposition.This also includes fragrances and preservatives in cosmetics.That is why it is particularly important for people with so-called atopic diseases, such as neurodermatitis and allergies, that cosmetics and skin care products do not contain any potential triggers, but instead rely on a few selected ingredients that, on the one hand, are not known allergens and, on the other hand, strengthen the disturbed skin lipid barrier and provide the skin with moisture.Suitable ingredients include glycerin, ceramides, squalane and triglycerides, as they are also contained in the PHYSIOGEL® Calming Relief Gentle Cleansing Milk.

This allows the skin barrier to be strengthened again, while at the same time preventing irritants, such as those found in many non-hypoallergenic products, from worsening the symptoms of very dry and sensitive skin.

Possible causes of very dry skin

But it's not just neurodermatitis or allergies that can lead to very dry skin.The causes are varied, but often have the same consequence: the moisture balance and the supply of important ingredients to the skin and skin-lipid barrier are severely disrupted.

These causes can lead to very dry skin: cold, heat, sun and low humidity, diseases such as diabetes mellitus, neurodermatitis or hypothyroidism, unhealthy lifestyle such as an unbalanced diet, too little fluid intake, smoking, stress and psychological stress, incorrect clothing that is too tight, regular contact with cleaning and disinfectants and chemicals, hormonal changes such as during pregnancy or when taking the pill, older age, poor or excessive personal hygiene, incorrect skin care, ingestiondifferent medications such as diuretics or retinoids.

Possible skin reactions for sensitive skin:

Anyone who has sensitive skin may react with reactions or rashes to the following external and internal influences: fragrances and dyes in skin care products, alcohols and anti-aging ingredients in creams and cosmetics, components of decorative cosmetics, some foods, contact with cleaning and disinfecting agents or chemicals, too intensive personal hygiene, intensive body and facial peelings or rubbing the skin with a dry towel, too little personal hygiene, strong air pollution and a high level of fine dust in the air.

Disturbed skin lipid barrier in neurodermatitis patients

People with neurodermatitis have a disrupted skin lipid barrier, leading to dryness and increased permeability.Conventional cosmetics containing fragrances and preservatives can further irritate the skin.For gentle facial cleansing for dry and sensitive skin, it is important to choose products without these ingredients and instead use skin-related lipids and natural moisturizing factors to strengthen and hydrate the skin.

Suitable and unsuitable ingredients for very dry skin

Unfortunately, many conventional cosmetic products contain ingredients that can further irritate the disturbed skin lipid barrier.Conventional fragrances and preservatives are among the main suspects.These can also dry out the skin and increase irritation.For example, there are a total of 26 fragrances in cosmetics and care products that often lead to contact allergies and therefore have to be listed separately in the list of ingredients.Most of them are primarily contained in essential oils.

This makes it all the more important to use products that are free of these potential irritants and allergens, such as the PHYSIOGEL® Calming Relief Gentle Cleansing Milk, which was specially developed for sensitive and dry skin.For gentle facial care for dry skin and a disturbed skin lipid barrier, mild and soothing ingredients are the be-all and end-all. So products that imitate the natural skin structure, such as the PHYSIOGEL® Calming Relief Gentle Cleansing Milk with its modern BioMimetic technology.The active complex of skin-related lipids and N-palmitoylethanolamine (palmitamide MEA, PEA) soothes the skin and relieves dryness.

Ingredients like glycerin and ceramides can also wonderfully help moisturize the skin.
