Natural care of atopic skin
The best natural products for atopic skin are gentle, mild and simple. Organic and nourishing products are the cornerstones of atopic skin care. Atopic skin is caused by a weak protective layer of the skin. This allows the skin to retain too little moisture. Because the skin is low in important fatty acids, it becomes dry and irritated even faster.
Atopic skin: eczema, flakes, irritation and redness
What exactly is atopic skin and what are its characteristics? Atopic skin is a skin disease that is determined by genetic predisposition. The symptoms and the extent to which you suffer from this differ per person. Certain factors can exacerbate atopic dermatitis, for example stress, some chemicals in cosmetics, too heavy facial cleansers, weather conditions and air pollution.
Your skin has a natural layer that protects against external influences. When this layer is damaged or does not work properly, this can lead to skin disorders. Atopic skin is sensitive, very dry and easily inflamed. If you have atopic skin, you may experience the following symptoms:
- Itching
- Inflammation
- Eczema
- flakes
- irritation
- Redness
Sometimes the atopic skin also causes swelling, fluid blisters and scabs. Atopic skin may need medical attention.
Natural care for atopic skin
Regular and natural care is very important for the proper treatment of atopic skin. Using the right products can prevent deterioration. The word “atopy” means “tendency to react allergically”. If the skin is in poor condition, it cannot defend itself against bacteria and therefore becomes vulnerable and sensitive to reactions. Therefore it is strongly recommended to use only effective and natural products without chemicals or synthetic perfume.
