Have you ever wondered why your skin feels sore when you’re sick? It’s bad enough that you’re miserable and barely functioning, but when the time comes to do your skincare, you’re faced with skin that's dry, irritated, and sensitive to even the slightest touch. Not only that, but your usual products fail to work their magic. This situation can make your skin look and feel dull, blotchy, and reactive, and leave you wondering, "What’s going on?"

With so many skin care products on the market, deciding which ones to choose can be challenging. While understanding your skin type can help you determine which products are best for you, it’s still possible to end up with a product that causes irritation or even triggers an allergic reaction.
