Your skin barrier is your skin’s “protective coat” — and when it’s impaired, everything feels worse: sensitivity, redness, dehydration, breakouts and that tight, reactive feeling.
This image is from a skin scan showing barrier sensitivity. It’s something I see a lot in clinic, often caused (or worsened) by:
UV exposure
Over-exfoliation / too many active ingredients
Harsh cleansers or fragranced products
Weather changes and indoor heating
Stress, poor sleep, and lifestyle factors
The good news: barrier repair is absolutely possible with the right plan.
In my consultations we take a full skin history, scan your skin, and build a tailored routine and treatment plan that supports long-term skin health — not just quick fixes.
These results are from one person over 3 months of consistent, personalised barrier-focused care (your results may vary).
If your skin feels “sensitive for no reason”, stings with products, or is always red/dry/oily at the same time — it may be your barrier asking for help.
