Here, we will let you know a few tips on how to prepare your skin before waxing and what are the products that can be used for sensitive skin.

How To Identify Sensitive Skin?

Sometimes it’s easy to recognize the skin sensitivity and sometimes it isn’t. Skin sensitivity can be due to many conditions that we might not have thought of. Skin can be sensitive towards particular ingredients, environmental conditions like pollution or temperature. Skin sensitivities can also be identified mostly in dehydrated skin or in dry skin patches.

Types of sensitive skin

Here are some skin types that needs a little more concern to work with:

Dry and sensitive skin:

This skin type doesn’t give required moisture or sebum for nerve endings which eventually makes the skin prone to sensitivity. This can create redness, rashes, or can get inflamed.

Oily and sensitive skin:

Though oily skin is easy to know, but can be effortful to treat. oily skin seems a bit greasy, and enlarged pores, pimples and acne are common, and might be a bit rough in nature. Sometimes oily skin can be mistaken as dry skin due to dehydration. This results in producing excess oil and enlarged pores.

Most Sensitive Areas:

Skin being naturally sensitive, it even makes the susceptible areas more sensitive. So one needs to be vigilant enough while dealing with these areas. Below are some extra sensitive areas that needs to be taken care of:

Facial area: eyebrows. Chin, upper lip, side areas needs to be taken extra care of or can be avoided in total cause it takes longer time than enough to get back to its normal tone after waxing.

Bikini area(Pubic, upper legs and thighs): This is one of the most vulnerable portions of the skin.

Armpits: this area can easily be annoying after waxing if it comes in contact with deodorants and other chemicals.
