IS ENVIRON GOOD FOR SENSITIVE SKIN?
Sensitive skin or Reactive skin is something that we come across frequently.
When our skin is working at it’s best, it has the protective layer that locks in moisture and prevents anything penetrating through it and causing issues. When this layer gets damaged, which can be caused by a number of factors, your skin becomes sensitive or reactive to things in the environment or what you use on it topically.
The best way to think of this is ‘irritated.’ If your skin is irritated it will feel like one, some or all of the below:
Itchy and tight
Red
Blotchy
Sensitive skin is more delicate, and more susceptible to reactions caused by external factors - weather, pollution, chemicals, makeup, household cleaning products and general cosmetics and even food and drinks.
The best way to address this common condition is to slowly and gradually increase the application of topical Vitamin A and antioxidants.
Due to Environ Skincare’s cornerstone ingredient being Vitamin A, as well as the love of antioxidants and how incredible these are for the skin, then the answer to the initial question is absolutely, yes! Environ is brilliant for sensitive skins.
If you have reactive or sensitive skin you need to be using Environ Skincare to help build up the Vitamin A stores within the skin and help rid yourself of the irritation.
In the process, it will create a natural protective barrier between the causes of sensitivity and the skin itself. Vitamin A STRENGTHENS the skin, which in turn will build this barrier back up to prevent the irritation and sensitivity from happening.
The results will be less inflammation, the skin will feel more comfortable and will look and feel healthier and better.
If your main concern is sensitivity, and this is what you want to target, we’ve built a generic skincare routine for sensitive skin types. This includes our feed, fortify, treat and finish method.
