Sensitive skin care

Acne is a chronic inflammatory disease of the sebaceous hair follicles. Each follicle contains a tiny hair and multiple sebaceous glands.

Under normal circumstances, sebum, the oily substance made by the sebaceous glands, travels up the hair follicle and out to the skin`s surface. Acne vulgaris is caused by an excessive amount of oil production by the skin, blockage of the openings to the oil producing glands (resulting in tiny blackheads) and also due to a bacterium, Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) which causes inflammation in the blocked glands. These three factors seem to work together in order to produce the red and yellow spots so characteristic of acne.

Occasionally these spots can develop into large cysts (so called nodular or cystic acne) which often results in scarring.

Although a bacterium is involved, acne cannot be caught from other people.

Acne develops on those areas of the skin where sebaceous glands are most numerous: the face, scalp, neck, chest, back, and upper arms and shoulders.

Many people with acne are upset by the way their skin looks. If you feel self-conscious and unhappy about your appearance, you might stop taking part in social activities or you might avoid going out.

Many skin conditions are considered a type of eczema or dermatitis. 

Eczema most commonly causes dry, reddened skin that itches or burns, although the appearance of eczema varies from person to person and varies according to the specific type of eczema. Intense itching is generally the first symptom in most people with eczema. Sometimes, eczema may lead to blisters and oozing lesions, but eczema can also result in dry and scaly skin. Repeated scratching may lead to thickened, crusty skin.

While any region of the body may be affected by eczema, eczema typically occurs on the face, neck, and the insides of the elbows, knees, and ankles.

Eczema can sometimes occur as a brief reaction that only leads to symptoms for a few hours or days, but in other cases, the symptoms persist over a longer time and are referred to as chronic dermatitis.

Typical signs and symptoms of rosacea include facial flushing, blushing, redness, burning, red bumps, and small cysts. The symptoms tend to come and go. The skin may be clear for weeks, months, or years and then erupt again. Rosacea tends to evolve in stages and typically causes inflammation of the skin of the face, particularly the forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin.

When rosacea first develops, it may appear, then disappear, and then reappear. However, the skin may fail to return to its normal colour and the enlarged blood vessels and pimples arrive in time. Rosacea may rarely reverse itself. Rosacea generally lasts for years, and, if untreated, it tends to gradually worsen.

If you have psoriasis, you get red patches covered with silvery scales on your skin. The patches have clear edges that separate them from the surrounding skin. They may be itchy. Sometimes the patches can split and bleed.

The patches of psoriasis are called plaques. They can be of different shapes and sizes. Sometimes you get psoriasis when your skin has been damaged. The patches that appear after a cut or scratch are often long and thin.

You might find your patches of psoriasis are itchy. Sometimes the patches can split, which makes them bleed or feel sore. But the main problem for many people is the way their skin looks.

People who develop vitiligo usually first notice white patches (depigmentation) on their skin. These patches are more commonly found on sun-exposed areas of the body, including the hands, feet, arms, face, and lips. Other common areas for white patches to appear are the armpits and groin, and around the mouth, eyes, nostrils, navel, genitals, and rectum.

Vitiligo generally appears in one of three patterns:

Focal pattern -- Depigmentation limited to one or only a few areas
Segmental pattern -- Depigmentation patches that develop on one side of the body
Generalized pattern -- Depigmentation occurs symmetrically on both sides of the body.

Many people with vitiligo are upset by the way their skin looks. If you feel self-conscious and unhappy about your appearance, you might stop taking part in social activities or you might avoid going out.

You can read labels carefully to see if you can figure out what specific ingredients irritate you, and you can try to avoid those ingredients that are more likely to produce an allergic-type response. If you have had intimate experiences with cosmetic dermatitis, you may consider it worth your while to go back through the stores and read the labels of products to which you have reacted in the past. You may find common ingredients, and then you will have a fairly good idea of which ones to avoid. There are, of course, some ingredients that are more commonly cited as possible allergens. Also keep in mind that concentration counts. You may only be allergic to some ingredients in high concentrations.

Whether or not you have sensitive or allergy-prone skin, chances are that you've had a reaction to a skin-care product or cosmetic somewhere on your face or body. For some, identifying which product caused the problem and discontinuing its use is enough to improve the appearance of skin within a day or two. For others, even after you've stopped using the item(s), your skin can remain irritated for days or even months.
