Introduction
Under normal circumstances, the stratum corneum refers to the outermost layer of the epidermis. Thin stratum corneum with visible red blood vessels (redness) may result from improper skincare, deficiency of vitamin E in the body, environmental factors, or naturally thin skin. Individuals with thin stratum corneum and redness typically can choose gentle products for makeup removal, such as cleansing milks, plant-based cleansing oils, mild cleansing waters, or cleansing balms.
