Once your skin is irritated, it needs a break. Stop all skin care products, and use the following skincare products:

MORNING AND NIGHT REGIME:

Step 1: Face wash

Why? Selecting the right cleanser is especially important for sensitive skin. Even if your skin feels oily, avoid harsh cleansers, as they can damage the delicate skin barrier, leading to irritation and dryness. A gentle, non-foaming or low-foaming cleanser is best for sensitive skin, as it removes dirt and excess oil without causing inflammation or disrupting the skin’s natural balance.

How? Be extra gentle when cleansing—avoid scrubbing or over-cleansing, as this can aggravate sensitive skin. After washing, pat your face dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing it to minimize irritation.

Step 2: Moisturizer

Why? For sensitive skin, applying moisturizer is essential to restore and strengthen the skin barrier. Moisturizers with calming ingredients like ceramides, oats, and niacinamide can help soothe irritation while providing hydration and protecting your skin.

How? Apply small dots of moisturizer evenly across your face, then gently massage it in to ensure full absorption. If your skin still feels dry, reapply a second or even third layer as needed.

Step 3: Sunscreen

Why? The sun is a significant trigger for sensitive skin, making regular use of sunscreen essential. Opt for a chemical-free sunscreen specifically formulated for sensitive skin. Generally, physical sunscreens containing zinc oxide are better suited for sensitive skin, as they provide effective protection without causing irritation.

How? Apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes before going outside. Use about two fingertip-sized amounts and place large dots across your face. Gently massage it in to spread evenly. Let it absorb fully before applying makeup. Remember to reapply every 3 hours. Avoid heavy makeup or excessive layering of products; opt for lightweight makeup over the sunscreen.
