Navigating Clothing Choices with Skin Sensitivities and Sensory Issues
Living with skin allergies, sensitivities, or sensory issues presents its own set of challenges. In today's blog, we delve into the realm of skin sensitivities to uncover which clothing options best support individuals with various skin conditions.
Skin conditions come in numerous forms, each with its own peculiarities. Here are the most commonly encountered ones.
Naturally Sensitive Skin
Ever experienced irritation from wearing a turtleneck or a woolen long-sleeve top? This discomfort is a hallmark of sensitive skin. Choosing clothes for this skin type involves a few simple guidelines: opt for natural fabrics, looser fits, and avoid high-necked garments to minimise itchiness. Seasonal changes also influence skin sensitivity; during winter, our skin tends to dry out and become more irritable. Wearing the right clothes and deeply moisturising your skin can mitigate these effects. You might want to consider trying bamboo fabric for sensitive skin because it's buttery soft and very gentle on your skin both in heat and in winter.

Environmentally Sensitive Skin
Our skin, the body's largest organ, interacts continuously with its environment, absorbing impacts from various sources like cosmetics, air pollution, and diet. While it's impossible to avoid all environmental factors, you can manage some. Protecting your skin from harsh sunlight, consuming natural, minimally processed foods, and selecting natural and soft fabrics can make a significant difference.

Skin Allergies and Conditions
Numerous skin conditions, including eczema and dermatitis, require medical advice. In terms of clothing, look for soft, breathable, and moisture-wicking fabrics that are gentle on the skin and reduce the risk of irritation. Bamboo fabric is good for eczema and dermatitis because it's buttery soft, breathable and doesn't irritate those super sensitive areas.

Mature Skin
As we age, our skin becomes thinner and more susceptible to irritation and sun damage. During perimenopause and menopause, women often experience hot flashes, a lack of elasticity, and dryness in their skin. Bamboo fabric is perfect for these conditions because of its moisture-wicking properties, making this fabric an excellent choice for both hot summers and dry, cold winters. It will keep you warm in the winter and ensure you stay nice and cool in the summer. It's also crucial to protect your skin with high-quality sunscreen and long-sleeve UPF protective clothing, like our UPF 50+ range, designed to shield skin from harmful UV rays.
