The sensitive and irritated skin on the body

Sensitive and irritated skin on the body is a skin condition where the skin reacts excessively to influences that most people normally tolerate. For example, clothing, soap, temperature, or skin care products.

The skin is often dry, red, itchy and uncomfortable and requires extra gentle care.

BALM all in one - nourishing and moisturizing

This balm can be used for almost anything and is perfume-free. It can thoroughly cleanse the skin, as it contains a multitude of oils that dissolve dirt and make-up, it can moisturize your skin due to the high content of squalane, it can nourish and care for your skin with all the delicious oils that both contain unsaturated and essential fatty acids as well as several antioxidants. And as an extra feature, it protects the skin with kukui oil, which leaves a film on the skin that retains moisture. Mango and tangerine are uplifting and stimulating, while carrot (beta-carotene) gives a beautiful color and contributes to the fight against free radicals. Use it e.g. for a good facial massage or during your gua sha. As a cleansing balm or eye balm. You can also hug it in your hair and collect dry and curly hair. BALM is available in 2 sizes 100 ml. and 15 ml.

The sensitive and irritated skin on the body

Characteristics of sensitive and irritated skin on the body

  • The skin may appear red, especially after touching, washing, or shaving.
  • It often feels hot and "stressed".
  • The skin often itches and can burn, especially if it becomes dry or exposed to perfume, wool, heat or cold.
  • Dryness and rough surfaces often worsen the irritation.
  • Reactions to external influences can lead to temporary outbreaks, such as red spots or small itchy bumps.
  • Does not tolerate perfume, alcohol, dyes, synthetic clothing or temperature fluctuations.

Causes

  • Weak or damaged skin barrier: Makes the skin more susceptible to the penetration of irritants.
  • Skin diseases: Such as atopic eczema, rosacea or contact dermatitis.
  • Frequent washing or improper care: Too much soap, hot water or rough sponges.
  • Environmental influences: Cold, dry air, sun or pollution.
  • Hormonal changes or stress.

Skin care for sensitive and irritated skin on the body

  • Use soap-free, perfume-free and pH-neutral products.

  • Take short, lukewarm baths instead of long, hot ones.
  • Moisturizer or balm several times a day. Without synthetic perfume or overly strong essential oils.
  • Cotton or bamboo clothing can be nice. Avoid wool and synthetic materials.
  • Avoid scratching, as it worsens irritation and can lead to sores or infection.

Our BALM contains squalane which is very moisturizing. No perfume, but smells faintly of mandarin. It contains both unsaturated and essential fatty acids as well as several antioxidants. Kukui nut oil, which forms a film on the skin that retains moisture.
