Your skin can look completely normal while using active ingredients - and then suddenly become more sensitive. This is often due to the cumulative effect of active ingredients. Think of it as a load that builds over time: Active ingredients → cumulative load → individual tolerance threshold → skin becomes reactive Your skin may handle the same routine well for a while. But as the cumulative load increases, you can suddenly notice changes. A few things to watch for: Mild redne
