Skin Recovery & Repair

Sensitised skin means the barrier has become weakened and inflammation is active. This often leads to burning, stinging, redness, peeling and unpredictable flare-ups. It is a skin behaviour state, not a permanent skin type.

When the barrier is disrupted, ingredients penetrate too deeply and trigger irritation. This can happen after over-exfoliation, frequent treatments, stress or hormonal change.
