Why is my skin reacting?

Dry and sensitive skin is a common problem that occurs when the skin's natural protective barrier is damaged or weakened. This can be due to factors such as cold weather, dry air, internal stress or strong skin care products. When the barrier does not function optimally, the skin loses moisture and becomes more susceptible to irritation and redness. Typical symptoms are tightness, dryness, itching and sometimes a burning sensation in the skin.

Dry & Sensitive skin

The skin expert's best tips for you with dry and sensitive skin

Moisturize the skin deeply

Choose products with moisture-binding ingredients such as urea, zinc and ectoine. These help draw in and retain moisture in the skin, where it is needed most.

Treat with soothing ingredients

Invest in gentle products with soothing ingredients that reduce redness and irritation without disturbing the skin's balance.

Strengthen the skin's defenses

Probiotics with live lactic acid bacteria help the skin regain its natural moisture balance and strengthen its barrier.

Dry and irritated skin with fragile skin barrier

A common form of sensitive skin is dry and irritated skin caused by a fragile or weakened skin barrier. In the Nordics, the dry, cold winter climate can lead to a weakened skin barrier and dry, sensitive and irritated skin. When the skin barrier is weakened, sensitivity increases. To moisturize, strengthen and soothe dry and reactive skin, we recommend our Sensitive Skin Trio Kit – a nurturing solution that gives the skin the care it needs.
