I guess I should reword how I describe it then. Immunity to being damaged through direct blows. This is different than normal Aura because it substitutes its all-around toughness for specific durability.

In this case, being used to hurting myself more than others, and easily shurgging off whatever blows were thrown my way, my Semblance would reduce or even negate damage done directly to me by anything.

However, the downside is that special combat maneuvers that don't rely on applying direct blows will cut me down easily. For example, grapples and throws will do some considerable damage, and I'm not exactly the strongest person around, which means putting me in something like an armlock will leave me immobilized regardless.
