Struggling with skincare for sensitive skin? When you have sensitive skin, it can be difficult to know which skin care products or routines will not cause irritation. Discover some of our best skin care tips for people with sensitive skin in the articles below and learn how to use our sensitive skin products.
Sensitive skin can present in many different ways from redness, irritation, dry or flakey patches, or even a bumpy rash. Skin can feel tight, dehydrated, and some products can have a stinging feeling when applied to sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin, it’s likely you're more reactive to active ingredients. The best sensitive skincare approach is to look at calming, soothing, hydrating, and anti-inflammatory formulations. Taking a gentle skincare approach by ensuring your complexion stays comfortable, moisturized, strengthened, and that no flare ups or reactions are triggered by your skincare is the goal. Cooling ingredients such as aloe vera, hydrating hyaluronic acid serums, conditioning vitamin E and essential oils, are all sensitive skin soothers.
For more reactive moments, having a soothing face serum in your skincare kit is a must. You can also try a calming face mask for sensitive skin too to supplement your daily skincare routine. Investing in a rich, conditioning, restorative daily moisturizer and night cream too is a must for sensitive skin. Layering a hydrating mist or gentle toner underneath your moisturizer can also help amplify results without adding irritation. And, as with skincare, it’s important to ensure the makeup you use is suitable for sensitive skin. At Glo, all our skincare-infused makeup is clean, talc-free, and mineral-based, meaning it’s nourishing and supportive for all skin types so you can build the perfect routine for sensitive skin from start to finish. Shopping for skincare by skin type allows you to find products that work in harmony with your skin—never against it. Remember: if you have hypersensitive skin, with persistent redness, stinging, rashes, or flaky skin, it’s a good idea to seek a dermatologist’s advice for sensitive skin treatment.
