Why Redness Happens

Redness is often a sign of a compromised skin barrier and heightened inflammatory response. Over-exfoliation, environmental stress, UV exposure, and internal stressors can all disrupt the skin’s protective systems - leaving it reactive, tight, and prone to flushing.

At NAYA, we approach redness by restoring what skin needs most: calm, barrier integrity, and cellular resilience.

Sun-Stressed Skin: Switch to Recovery Mode

If your skin feels hot, tight, flushed, suddenly dull, or more reactive after sun exposure, it’s a sign the barrier is under stress. This is the moment to pause treatment and focus on recovery.

Recovery priorities

Keep the routine calm, simple, and protective.

  • Pause exfoliation, retinoids, and “brightening” treatments
  • Focus on hydration, calming support, and barrier repair
  • Use high-UVA SPF every morning — even if you’re mostly indoors

Simple recovery routine

Minimum effective steps, morning and night.

Gentle cleanse
Hydrating or calming serum
Barrier-support moisturiser
SPF in the morning
If you’re experiencing blistering, swelling, intense burning, or symptoms that worsen after 48 hours, it may be more than barrier stress. In that case, pause skincare actives and seek medical advice.

When to resume actives

Once skin feels calm, comfortable, and no longer reactive, reintroduce treatments slowly.
