Understanding Eczema: What Causes It?
Eczema occurs when the skin’s natural barrier is compromised, leading to increased sensitivity and susceptibility to irritants. While the exact cause of eczema is not fully understood, several factors can trigger flare-ups:
-
Genetics: A family history of eczema, asthma, or allergies increases your likelihood of developing it.
-
Environmental Irritants: Pollutants, harsh soaps, and synthetic fabrics can aggravate sensitive skin.
-
Allergens: Common allergens, such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander, can trigger eczema.
-
Weather Changes: Cold, dry air or high humidity levels can disrupt your skin’s moisture balance.
-
Stress: Emotional stress can exacerbate symptoms by triggering inflammatory responses.
Understanding your personal triggers is essential to managing eczema effectively.
Why Serums Are Essential for Eczema Care
Serums are lightweight, fast-absorbing skincare products packed with concentrated active ingredients. For eczema-prone skin, serums offer several benefits:
-
Targeted Treatment: They deliver potent ingredients directly to the affected areas, addressing inflammation and dryness.
-
Hydration Boost: Many serums contain humectants, like hyaluronic acid, that draw moisture into the skin.
-
Barrier Repair: Ingredients like ceramides and fatty acids strengthen the skin’s protective barrier.
-
Soothing Relief: Anti-inflammatory ingredients, such as niacinamide and chamomile extract, calm redness and irritation.
