Skin Allergic reaction treatment

Having problems with sensitive skin?  Here’s a Skin allergic reaction treatment that you can try that can help you figure out what caused the reaction.

Sensitive skin

What is sensitive skin?  Sensitive skin can be described as skin that gets irritated easily.  This usually entails redness and even itching.  It can be very uncomfortable.  The irritation could happen from contact with clothes, skin care products, or even food.

And, aside from being uncomfortable, you also feeling self-conscious.  It’s something that’s always on your mind because you’re feeling the irritation, so you itch and scratch all the time – plus, you are worried about what you look like.  It’s awful.

My sensitive skin

When I was a teenager, I had many skin issues.  Not only was my skin oily but it was also sensitive.  Of course, as a teen, you get acne breakouts.  I mean, who isn’t acne prone at that age?

I’ve told my story before and it’s not unlike many other people.  My biggest problem was the skin care products I was using.  My skin would get irritated and turn red.  Much of it was the ingredients in those products that was causing the reaction.  Until I figured out the skin allergic reaction treatment, I continued to struggle.

Another issue I had was I didn’t know exactly how to take care of my skin.  As a teen, I thought the more you washed, the better your skin would be.  That was obviously wrong and I figured that out quickly.  But, once I did, I still had skin reactions and the sensitivity that went with it until I started my skin allergic reaction treatment that I’ll talk about next.

4 steps to Skin allergic reaction treatment

So, what can you do when you find yourself with sensitive skin?  Here’s what I suggest:

1. First, you need to think about anything new in your routine – whether it be a new laundry detergent, a skin care product you recently started to use, or maybe the foods you are eating.
2. Once you’ve thought this through, start eliminating this from your routine.  For example, if you think it could be from detergents, eliminate the laundry detergent you started to use.  Wash all your clothes in a hypo-allergenic detergent and see if you notice any improvement.  Or, maybe you started to use a new moisturizer.  Stop using that.  Same with foods, eliminate the things you think could be the problem.
3. If you find that the sensitivity has stopped, you are getting close.
4. Then, slowly bring back the things that you were eliminating.  Do it one at a time.  If the irritation comes back when you re-introduce something, you know you have found the right thing.

This could take some time because the cause could be any number of things.  And, it could be one thing or a few things.  When you discover the thing that is causing the sensitivity, it may seem strange.  Maybe it was a product you’ve always used.  If this is the case, you may wonder how you can be sensitive to it now.  Believe me, it happens.

Think about those people who have never had a shellfish allergy and then all of a sudden, they have an allergic reaction.  Our bodies change over time and an allergen might not affect you initially but it can build up and then cause problems later.  These problems can come in the form of sensitive skin like irritation and redness.

But, taking the time to do this elimination can help you to relieve that sensitivity.  Then, you won’t have to wonder ‘why is my skin so sensitive‘ anymore.
