Facial care for sensitive skin

If your skin is sensitive to external influences and prone to redness and irritation, targeted facial care for sensitive skin is essential. This skin type requires a particularly gentle and soothing treatment, with a specially formulated face cream for sensitive skin being crucial to strengthen the skin’s protective barrier and alleviate irritation. When choosing the right facial care for sensitive skin, it's important to select products made without potentially harmful ingredients that support your skin’s natural balance.

Irritability

Your skin reacts quickly to external influences such as changes in temperature, wind or certain ingredients and often shows signs of redness, dryness and itching.

Protective barrier

Sensitive skin often has a weakened protective barrier, making it more susceptible to irritation and allergic reactions. This skin tends to react quickly and requires special care.

Complexion

The complexion is often uneven and can be characterized by redness or dry patches. Sensitive skin can also be prone to flaking.

Unique characteristic

The selection of mild, hypoallergenic products is crucial. A gentle cleansing routine and soothing skincare products help protect the skin and prevent irritation.

What is sensitive skin?

Sensitive skin is a skin type that reacts strongly to external factors and certain ingredients in skincare products. People with sensitive skin often experience redness, dryness, itching, burning, or tightness. These reactions can be triggered by factors such as extreme temperatures, wind, UV radiation, pollution, or contact with specific chemicals. Sensitive skin often has a weakened barrier, making it less resilient and more prone to irritation and allergic reactions.

Our "Sensitive Skin Collection" is specifically formulated to meet the needs of sensitive skin, free from potentially irritating or harmful additives.

Tips for radiant and beautiful skin

  • 1. Use mild cleaning products

    Choose gentle, fragrance-free cleansing products that are specially designed for sensitive skin. Our Foam Sensitive is ideal because it cleans thoroughly without irritating the skin and does not contain any aggressive ingredients.

  • 2. Avoid hot showers

    Hot showers can dry out the skin and exacerbate irritation. Instead, use lukewarm water to protect the skin's natural moisture barrier.

  • 3. Moisturizer without fragrances

    Use moisturizers that do not contain fragrances or other potentially irritating additives. Products with soothing ingredients like aloe vera or panthenol are ideal.

  • 4. Avoid frequent peeling

    Sensitive skin often reacts with irritation to excessive exfoliation. Limit exfoliation to once or twice a week and use gentle enzyme exfoliants like our Bamboo Enzyme Powder Peeling.

  • 5. Protect your skin from the sun

    Use a daily sunscreen with a high SPF that is specifically formulated for sensitive skin. Our Anti-Pollution Day Cream, suitable for all skin types, also provides protection against harmful environmental factors and helps to strengthen the skin barrier.

  • 6. Avoid stress

    Stress can worsen skin problems. Find ways to reduce stress, such as meditation, yoga, or taking walks.

HOW CAN YOU IDENTIFY SENSITIVE SKIN AND HOW DO YOU CARE FOR IT EFFECTIVELY?
