Why Gentle Underwear Is Essential for Sensitive Skin

Finding underwear that truly cares for sensitive skin can feel impossible. As someone who’s spent years dealing with irritation, dryness, and chronic itchiness, I know how much comfort matters—especially when your skin reacts to almost everything.

Mainstream underwear often uses harsh seams, narrow gussets, and synthetic fabrics like polyester that can trap heat and moisture. I used to think I was alone in having underwear pill, bleach, or cause discomfort—until I started hearing similar stories from customers.

My own skin sensitivity started as a child and became a lifelong challenge. It took years (and a lot of ruined underwear) to realise that fabric choice makes all the difference. Through research and trial and error, I discovered micromodal—a super soft, OEKO-TEX certified fabric made from Austrian beech trees. Every pair of Cuurve underwear is designed with wide gussets, gentle seams, and clean, skin-kind materials.

Jessie, one of my first customers, found Cuurve because she needed something soft for her lipoedema. Sarah, who lives with chronic illness, told me Cuurve's gentle underwear made her feel comfortable even on bedridden days. Their feedback—and my own journey—shaped every design decision.

If you’re tired of irritation and discomfort, gentle underwear can make all the difference. I invite you to try Cuurve —designed by someone who truly understands sensitive skin.
