Sensitive skin is above all very reactive and must be treated with care adapted to maintain optimal hydration and avoid any risk of irritation.
Sensitive skin: focus on hydration and appeasement
Moisturizing active ingredients such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid are used, and we do not hesitate to opt for products enriched with thermal water, known for its soothing properties.
To repair the skin, it is essential to choose care containing fatty acids or vegetable oils adapted to this state of skin (sea buckthorn oil or musky rose oil).
If redness, warming or tightness arise, we favor actives with soothing virtues such as alpha bisabolol, allantoin, panthenol, aloe vera or calendula.
Assets to avoid to preserve sensitive skin
Sensitive skin can withstand products containing preservatives, surfactants and perfumes, which are far too irritating. Care is also avoided with retinol or fruit acids. If possible, one chooses a care without fragrance or very slightly perfumed to limit the risks of skin reaction.
