sensitive skin
Prone to redness
Sensitive skin is a skin type or condition that reacts more readily than normal to environmental factors, products, or irritants, often with redness, itching, burning, or dryness.
The term appears frequently in skincare marketing to describe products formulated without common irritants like fragrances or harsh chemicals.
I have sensitive skin, so I stick to gentle cleansers.
Whether sensitivity is an inherent trait or a temporary condition varies by individual.
