Sensitive skin is characterised by heightened reactivity to external and internal stimuli, often linked to impaired barrier function, increased nerve sensitivity and dysregulated inflammatory pathways. Even mild triggers such as temperature changes, cosmetics, friction or emotional stress can induce burning, stinging, flushing or discomfort.
This reactivity is frequently associated with reduced lipid integrity, altered microbiome balance and a tendency toward chronic low-grade inflammation, which together make the skin more vulnerable to environmental stressors and cumulative damage.
Supporting sensitive skin requires stabilising the barrier, reducing inflammatory signalling and restoring a balanced surface ecosystem rather than masking symptoms. Approaches that respect the skin’s physiology help minimise reactivity, promote comfort and gradually rebuild resilience.
AWvi’s solutions focus on strengthening core defence mechanisms and encouraging steady recovery, guiding sensitive skin toward a calmer and more predictable state.
