Sensitive Skin

Gentle, Personalised Care For Delicate & Reactive Skin

Sensitive skin can be challenging to manage. Many people experience redness, irritation, dryness, tightness or unexpected reactions to skincare products, environmental factors or lifestyle changes.

At Face & Body Collective, we understand that sensitive skin requires a thoughtful and personalised approach. Rather than overwhelming the skin with aggressive treatments or unnecessary products, our focus is on strengthening the skin barrier, improving hydration and supporting long-term skin health.

Whether your skin has always been sensitive or you’ve noticed increasing sensitivity over time, our team can help create a treatment plan designed to restore comfort, balance and confidence.

What Is Sensitive Skin?

Sensitive skin is often characterised by an increased tendency to react to products, environmental triggers or changes in routine.

Common symptoms may include:

  • Redness
  • Dryness
  • Tightness
  • Irritation
  • Itching
  • Flaking
  • Burning sensations
  • Discomfort after using skincare products

Sensitive skin can affect all ages and skin types and may occur alongside other conditions such as rosacea, eczema or dehydration.

What Causes Sensitive Skin?

There are many factors that can contribute to skin sensitivity, including:

  • A weakened skin barrier
  • Environmental factors
  • Stress
  • Hormonal changes
  • Overuse of active skincare ingredients
  • Sun exposure
  • Genetics
  • Underlying skin conditions

Understanding what is contributing to your sensitivity is often the first step towards improving your skin.

Why The Skin Barrier Matters

The skin barrier acts as your body’s natural defence system.

When functioning properly, it helps retain moisture and protect against external irritants. When compromised, the skin may become more reactive, dehydrated and uncomfortable.

Many of our treatments focus on supporting and strengthening the skin barrier while improving overall skin resilience.
