Does redness or irritated skin reactions often bother you in your life? It’s actually quite easy to balance and soothe sensitive skin with the right products. Read on for some of our ideal skincare routines for sensitive skin.
What is Sensitive Skin?
Knowing if you have sensitive skin is the first step in formulating the perfect skin care results. Sensitive skin refers to a tendency to react to certain skin care ingredients, fragrances, etc. Sensitive skin may also react to friction, wind, or sunlight, including a red, burning, or itching sensation, and you may have sensitive skin. In fact, sensitive skin can occur at any age.
Clinical features
Sensitive skin presents in a wide variety of ways with:
- subjective symptoms such as stinging, itching, burning
- and/or visible skin changes such as redness, dryness, scaling, peeling, bumps.
Overly dry or injured skin can no longer protect nerve endings, leading to allergic skin reactions.
Tips for Sensitive Skin
- Simplify your skincare routine
The ideal sensitive skin routine has only a few products with gentle and simple ingredients, as sensitive skin can be very reactive to certain ingredients.
- Cleanse
- Toner
- Moisturise
- SPF (Morning)
- Use a Mask (Weekly)
- Know ingredients and textures
- Stay Moisturized
- Always apply sunscreen
When choosing skin care products, try to choose natural ingredients and avoid the use of harsh additives. Try to use light textures, as too greasy textures can also cause irritation and lead to skin problems such as acne and breakouts.Sensitive skin needs regular hydration and nourishment. Make sure to moisturise morning and night, and choose a lightweight moisturizer to help you get rid of the dryness it can cause.This is an essential step in any skincare routine as it helps protect against harmful UV rays. These UV rays can cause sunburn, further irritate skin sensitivity and cause skin aging.

How to test skincare products for sensitive skin?
Start the patch test on an invisible part of the leg or arm, such as behind the knee or inside the elbow. If the skin has not developed an allergic reaction within 24 hours, it is time to evaluate the product’s performance on your face.
Pick a small area of the face that is easy to cover, such as under the ear or under the jaw, and apply the product. If there is no allergic reaction within 24 hours, this product may be safe for you to use.
