Simple Tips for Caring for Sensitive Skin

Everybody’s skin differs. Out of all the skin types, sensitive skin requires the most extra love and care. Sensitive skin is very reactive to certain ingredients and environments, adding different challenges to the skin-care process. Avoid irritations, breakouts, and bad reactions with these four simple tips for caring for sensitive skin.

Know the Signs of Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin manifests in multiple ways, from redness to excess oil production. Knowing the signs of sensitive skin allows you to best cater to your skin’s needs and target certain concerns. How you tend to oiliness differs from how you combat dryness. Both skin conditions require specific needs.

Dry, sensitive skin benefits from hydrating and moisturizing skin care, like The Organic Pharmacy’s Hyaluronic Acid Corrective Mask. Combating oiliness involves pH balancers and cleansers that’ll ensure your natural oils won’t clog your pores. Familiarize yourself with your skin sensitivities to know what products and ingredients will best serve you.

Stick to the Skin-Care Basics

Limiting your skin-care routine to the basics ensures that you don’t overwhelm your skin with too many exposures. The simpler the regimen, the better. The essentials of a basic skin-care routine include:

  • Cleanser
  • Toner
  • Moisturizer
  • Face mask (two to three times a week)

Oils and serums are great for targeting specific concerns, but solidifying a strong base for your skin care sets you up with the essentials. Choosing products with basic ingredients—ones free from fragrance, fancy chemicals, or dyes—also limits what you expose your skin to and keeps your routine simple and sensitive-friendly.

Amp Up Your Skin Protection

Sensitive skin reacts with everything it makes contact with. Implementing protectants into your skin care and building your skin’s defenses shields you against sensitive skin irritants and exposures, like the sun, extreme temperatures, and pollutants.

The Stabilized Vitamin C Serum from The Organic Pharmacy contains beneficial antioxidant properties that protect your skin from pollutants and UV damage. There are a few other things to consider adding to your skin-care routine.

Antioxidant Ingredients

Antioxidants neutralize free radicals—like air pollution and UV rays—preventing them from damaging your skin.

Moisturizers

Moisturizers seal the surface layer of your skin, locking in moisture while also generating a protective barrier.

Avoid Harsh and Irritating Ingredients

Sensitive skin doesn’t pair well with harsh scrubs and strong chemicals. Many substances irritate sensitive skin, including fragrances, dyes, and rough textures. When taking care of sensitive skin, avoid harsh and irritating ingredients and opt for more gentle and natural alternatives.

Products derived from natural ingredients cut out a lot of harsh chemicals, giving you gentle skin-care solutions free from toxins and irritants. Rose waters, serums, and creams provide a natural and non-irritable fragrance that’s also rich in antioxidants, providing you with a gentle and aromatic skin-care solution. Sticking to foams, serums, and other smooth textured products ensure you don’t rub and irritate your skin. For natural, gentle, and sensitive-friendly products, we recommend checking out our selection of The Organic Pharmacy products.

Follow these four simple tips for caring for sensitive skin to best cater to your skin’s needs. Sensitive skin requires a little extra love, and Beauty Prophet has what you need to do just that.
