Frequently Asked Questions
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.
Yes. Sensitised skin can still overproduce oil while remaining dehydrated underneath. This creates a confusing combination of breakouts and irritation, which requires careful sequencing.
If your skin stings, burns, peels, flushes easily or feels tight and uncomfortable, it likely needs stabilisation before any corrective treatments.
Not always. Purging is temporary and mild, but ongoing redness, burning or peeling is often irritation and barrier damage. At ULANDA, we assess whether your skin is inflamed or simply adjusting.
Recovery can be supported professionally through barrier-safe treatments such as hydration therapy and LED support. The key is choosing treatments that reduce inflammation rather than stimulating the skin further.
Many clients notice improvement within 2–4 weeks, but full barrier resilience often requires 6–12 weeks depending on severity and lifestyle triggers.
Yes. Sensitised skin often loses hydration rapidly due to barrier disruption. Dehydration is one of the earliest signs of recovery fatigue.
Yes. Dryness and flaking are common in recovery phases, especially after excessive exfoliation or strong actives. This is why structured repair is essential.
Yes. When the barrier is inflamed and dehydrated, glow reduces dramatically. Many clients regain radiance once the skin is stabilised and hydrated properly.
