General information:

Children's skin is often sensitive and delicate, as the skin's protective system still has to develop during the first few years of life. However, the skin remains sensitive more and more even in adulthood, i.e. the skin reacts with irritations and redness to certain ingredients in cosmetics or also in detergents.

It is important that those affected find out which treatment or which ingredients make their skin react. These substances should be avoided consistently if possible.

The care of sensitive and delicate skin should be regular and permanent. BIOTURM offers a wide range of natural cosmetic products specially designed for the care of sensitive skin.
