Sensitive skin (sensitive skin syndrome, hypersensitivity of the skin) is skin that is easily irritated and reacts more often to various factors than normal skin. This is not a skin type, but a temporary condition that can affect absolutely any skin type. Dry and dehydrated skin is most often at risk.
Thus, sensitive skin is an inadequate reaction of the skin to the influence of various provoking factors: stress, improper care, aggressive cosmetic procedures, etc.
