Dry & Sensitive Skin

Dry and sensitive skin can become more noticeable in your 50s as natural oil production declines and hormonal changes affect the skin’s ability to retain moisture. You may notice increased tightness, flakiness, redness, irritation or a greater sensitivity to products and environmental changes.

A consistent, gentle skincare routine can help restore comfort and support a stronger, healthier-looking skin barrier. Mild cleansing, deeply hydrating ingredients, ceramides and nourishing moisturisers can help reduce moisture loss and improve softness, resilience and skin comfort. Daily broad-spectrum SPF is also important, as UV exposure can further weaken the skin barrier and increase sensitivity.

Professional treatments can further support dry and sensitive skin by improving hydration, soothing visible irritation and strengthening overall skin function. Treatments designed to calm, replenish and support the skin barrier can help create a smoother, softer and more comfortable-looking complexion.

Lifestyle, hormonal and environmental factors can also influence dryness and sensitivity. Menopause, weather changes, air conditioning, stress, sleep, hydration, sun exposure and the use of overly harsh skincare can all affect how the skin feels and responds, which is why a personalised and gentle approach is especially important.
