Cosmetics without the risk of skin
 Risk - a noble cause, but not in the case when it comes to cosmetics ... If your skin reacts to temperature changes redness, does not look after washing with tap water, can not tolerate fragrances in cosmetics, you - the owner of sensitive skin. In this case, the makeup must be chosen carefully, clearly imagining how it must act.

There is a widespread belief that there can be only sensitive dry skin. In fact, any skin may become one in the wrong care or some changes in the body. For example, a skin condition affects not the best way to colds, fever, digestive disorders, and, of course, allergic reactions.

Undoubtedly, it is often sensitive and delicate dry skin structure.   This type of skin has a specific structure and characteristics: a low tone of the skin associated with low content of collagen fibers, reducing moisture locking mechanisms in the inner layers of the skin, "wrong", too long maturation of skin cells.

Skin condition also affects the body's hormonal balance, especially the power of a particular person, his habits. For example, people who abuse the services of tanning, the skin becomes too dry, negative changes occur in the inner layer of the skin - the mesoderm, the skin is aging rapidly, there is a lot of surface wrinkles. Surprisingly in this case, the skin can look young and healthy, when in fact it occur pathological changes.

Oily skin often enough as is sensitive because of the excessive production of sebum, clogging the pores and improper use of cosmetics. If you have oily skin and still sluggish (reduced tone), then it rises and its tendency to sensitivity.

Skin type changes with age, and can also be transformed due to the change of climate or season (from oily to dry). The skin is "dry up" central heating system, chlorinated pool water, the sun's rays, a cream with an unbalanced composition (the one that leaves an unpleasant sticky film on the face - a consequence of excess surfactants), vitamin deficiencies (especially the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E), and the lack of proper care.

Sensitive skin does not tolerate the majority of cosmetic procedures and quickly fade. This is a result of insufficient protection by natural hydro-lipid barrier . It is a specific structure of the molecules of water and fats, which allows to keep normally wetted outer and inner layers of the skin.

Fortunately, there are cosmetic ingredients medical cosmetics, which are able to restore the hydro-lipid structure, for example, Polyunsaturated fatty acids   (PUFA) - linoleic and linolenic acid, which are contained in all edible oils. In cosmetics, use linseed oil, rapeseed oil, raspberry seed, currants and grapes, macadamia nut oil.

These fatty acid - linoleic and linolenic   - Are in the skin of a kind of "cement" that binds the scales of the epidermis (top layer of skin). Moreover, from the linoleic acid produced in the body-specific substances, relieving itching, inflammation, irritation and pain.

Highly regarded beeswax cosmetologists as a medical component, the ability to protect the skin from external influences by forming a film on the skin physiological. Wax contains substances similar in composition to the dermal fat man, so helping to maintain the normal structure of the skin. It becomes clear that in cosmetics for sensitive skin are the most important components of these, because they allow a person to feel comfortable. For irritated skin that causes a lot of discomfort: itching, burning, tightness.

In addition to the components listed in medical cosmetics to reduce inflammation is thermal water Which is rich in elements such as calcium, zinc, copper, manganese, silicon. These mineral components have a protective and anti-inflammatory effect.

In cosmetics for sensitive skin often found Vegetable extracts : Chamomile, lime, arnica, licorice extracts from various marine algae. Vegetation is good because they have a whole set of influences: from inflammation to remove the provision of therapeutic effect in allergic reactions. There are entire cosmetic brands, which are the basis of the action - only concentrated plant extracts. For example, medical cosmetics brand Lierac .

Frequent guests in the composition of cosmetics for sensitive skin - masking green pigments Who do well with redness and tiny red tinted flasks on the skin surface. In the fight for the health of the skin helps dermatological cosmetics brands Avene, Uriage, A-Derma, Bioderma, Ducray Which contains biologically active substances in effective concentrations, and active forms, allowing to quickly deal with the existing problem of sensitive skin.

Of course, such cosmetics do not contain dangerous preservatives, flavors, does not cause the formation of comedones, has a "delicate" structure, that is, is additionally tested for hypoallergenic. It is important that dermatologists recommend the use of such cosmetic products with aggressive dermatological treatment in combination with hormonal and anti-inflammatory ointments, which are commonly prescribed for the treatment of skin diseases. The effectiveness of such combinations proved by clinical trials on the basis of the French and Russian clinics.
