| Reactive Skin – What You Need to Know Reactive skin gets red, itchy, or irritated very quickly. Weather changes like sun, wind, or cold, as well as pollution, stress, hormones, or bed diet can all make it worse. Typical signs are redness, burning, tingling, dryness, broken capillaries, rough patches, and skin that feels overly sensitive to touch. To keep it under control, stick to gentle, fragrance-free products, always protect with SPF 30+, and keep your skin well hydrated with a light soothing cream. Wash your face with cool or lukewarm water and skip harsh scrubs. Be aware that skin care can only do so much. Eating clean also helps - no processed sugar, no dairy, avoid alcohol. Sometimes even gluten can make a big difference in skin texture. Consider reducing gluten if you notice reactivity. With simple daily care and a little patience, reactive skin can stay calm and comfortable. |
