What is sensitive skin?

Posted on 27th April at 02:10 PM Posted by: Crian Wilson

Steve would say skin that is in any way uncomfortable can be viewed as sensitive skin.  To try and understand this better, we conducted a survey of over 200 people and confirmed that the typical signs of skin sensitivity are:  Irritation, Burning, Itching, Stinging, Reddening, Tightening, Spots, Flaking. Skin may be more delicate, thinner and drier too and any of these signs can lead people to consider themselves to have sensitive skin.

Sensitive skin?

Posted on 29th June at 11:52 AM Posted by: Hector B Perales

It seems like men with sensitive skin have got the short end of the stick. Needless to say, if you have an office job that requires a dress attire, then shaving is pretty much a must ( even if you manage to get away with shaving once every two days). On top of this, having sensitive skin just makes the problem worse. Sensitive skin and I have a love-hate relationship. I love it when it is calm and appeased, and I hate it when it flares up. What can I do to keep it down and mellow? I have trialed tens of products designed for men, even some for women, and none have a long lasting effect.  I want to look clean, but it seems like I also need to look shiny (very rich creams) if I want the flare-ups and the post-razor burn to subside. Any one else with this problem? Please raise your hand!
