The Sensitive Skin Standard
Sensitive Skin Education - Barrier Science - Skin Longevity
The Sensitive Skin Standard is Skin Virtue's education hub dedicated to understanding sensitive, sensitised and ageing skin. Our articles explore the factors that influence skin behaviour including barrier function, hydration balance, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), redness, congestion, uneven tone and the early signs of visible ageing.
By understanding how the skin barrier, hydration stability and tolerance interact, it becomes easier to build routines that support calmer, clearer and more resilient-looking skin over time.
