Sensitive skin is not a medical diagnosis, yet it can deeply affect everyday comfort and confidence. It often shows up as tightness, dryness, itching, irritation, and redness that seem to appear out of nowhere and linger, even when you cannot identify a clear trigger.
Current research links sensitive skin to three main drivers: overactive immune cells, increased expression of specific nerve receptors, and an imbalanced skin microbiome. In modern biohacking terms, sensitive skin reflects a dysregulated cutaneous ecosystem, where immune, neural, and microbial networks are out of balance rather than simply “thin” or “weak” skin. Damage to the skin barrier can amplify this sensitivity, but even skin with an apparently intact barrier may react due to cellular over-responsiveness. Because of this, caring properly for sensitive skin is essential. Beyond comfort, reactive skin is more vulnerable to UV damage, premature aging, and everyday environmental stressors. A thoughtful, evidence-based biohacking approach focuses on restoring balance at multiple levels — soothing the nervous system, calming immune responses, and supporting a healthy microbiome — to maintain both beauty and long-term skin health.
Meder’s Sensitive Skincare Routine is designed as an intelligent, microbiome-friendly biohacking system for reactive skin. Instead of simply masking symptoms, it targets the skin’s nervous system and microbiome through advanced neurocosmetic actives and microbiome support, helping to restore comfort and resilience from within.
With regular use, skin begins to feel calmer, stronger, and less reactive. Visible improvements often appear quickly: irritation is reduced, hydration is restored, and the complexion looks smoother, more even-toned, and naturally radiant. This makes the routine an ideal daily “nervous system reset” and microbiome-balancing ritual for stressed, urban, and hormonally reactive skin.
Centella Asiatica extract from Madagascar, rich in soothing, anti-inflammatory compounds that comfort reactive, redness-prone skin.
Prebiotic Bioecolia to nourish beneficial microorganisms while discouraging the growth of inflammation-triggering bacteria, helping to rebalance the microbiome over time.
Alpine water, rich in Magnesium, providing deep hydration, fortifying the skin barrier, and acting as a natural prebiotic to help support a balanced skin microbiome and lasting comfort.
Organic Macadamia oil and ceramides to restore essential lipids, reinforce the barrier, and reduce transepidermal water loss.
Prebiotic Aquaxyl and Hyaluronic acid to boost moisture retention, optimize hydration pathways, and leave sensitive skin feeling plump, supple, and comfortable.
Vitamin B5 (Panthenol) for its well-known healing, regenerating, and barrier-supporting properties, ideal for sensitized or compromised skin.
The Meder Sensitive Skincare Routine fits seamlessly into a modern, busy lifestyle and supports many different sensitive skin stories:
Helps rebalance sensitive, reactive skin by nurturing beneficial bacteria and strengthening the barrier for better long-term tolerance and comfort.
Targets immune and nerve over-reactivity with soothing actives to reduce flushing, tightness, itching, and stinging sensations.
Replenishes lipids and ceramides while boosting hydration to make skin more resilient to triggers like stress, pollution, and climate changes.
Locks in moisture with hyaluronic acid and prebiotic humectants, leaving sensitive skin feeling soft, supple, and soothed all day.
Works on multiple levels — immune, neural, and microbiome — to restore balance, resilience, and radiance instead of simply masking symptoms.

Follow a consistent sleep schedule, going to bed and waking up at the same time when possible. Respect your natural rhythm (early bird or night owl) and create a calm, sleep-friendly bedroom environment.
Drink enough water throughout the day and add calming herbal infusions like mint or verbena, as well as green tea, while reducing caffeinated drinks to support overall skin comfort and resilience.
