Why is it said that sensitive skin is the one who should wear base makeup?

For sensitive skin, anything that puts a burden on the skin should be avoided as much as possible. For example, base makeup is one of them. However, nowadays, it is recommended to wear base makeup when going out, even if you have sensitive skin. Do you know why?

Sensitive skin is vulnerable to all kinds of damage. That’s why we use base makeup to block external stimuli!

People tend to think, “Even though it is light, just wearing base makeup may be a burden on the skin…” But this is a big mistake. When the skin is sensitive, the barrier function is reduced, and if no makeup is applied, ultraviolet rays, pollen, dust, and other contaminants can irritate the skin, causing redness and spots to appear. Therefore, it is effective to protect the skin from external stimuli by using base makeup. It is also recommended from a psychological standpoint as well, as making the skin look beautiful can have a positive effect on the mental state, reducing stress and improving skin conditions. For these reasons, it is said that sensitive skin is the one that should wear base makeup.

With the gradual rise of men’s cosmetics in recent years, the term “makeup men” has been coined, and it is no longer unusual for men to wear makeup, but there are still many who are not comfortable with the idea. For those who are still reluctant to wear makeup, we would like to propose a colorless makeup primer or face powder. Since they are colorless, they do not feel like you are wearing makeup, so they are easy to use, make your skin look beautiful, and block external irritants. If your skin is sensitive due to seasonal changes or stress, avoid going out with bare skin and try using base makeup.
