8 Sensitive Skincare Tips

Patch Test New Products

Before using a new skincare product, patch test a tiny area of skin for side effects.

Choose Fragrance-Free Products

Fragrances might irritate delicate skin. Choose fragrance-free skincare to reduce irritation.

Use Gentle Cleansers

Choose gentle, moisturizing cleansers without harsh chemicals or detergents. Avoid alcohol-based products, which dry and irritate delicate skin.

Avoid Hot Water

Hot water depletes skin oils and increases sensitivity. Avoid extended hot water exposure and cleanse with lukewarm water.

Be Mindful of Exfoliation

Only exfoliate once or twice a week using light products. Hard scrubs and acids can irritate and redden sensitive skin.

Choose Hypoallergenic Products

Hypoallergenic skin care products are designed to reduce allergic reactions and are ideal for delicate skin.

Patch Test Sunscreen

Sunscreen is essential for everyone, including delicate skin. Find a broad-spectrum, nonirritating sunscreen using patch testing.

Moisturize Regularly

A hypoallergenic, mild moisturizer keeps skin nourished. This protects the skin barrier and decreases dryness and irritation.
