Sensitive Skin — FAQ

What products are best for sensitive skin?

Choose fragrance-free, minimal-ingredient formulas with soothing, barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides, panthenol, oat and centella. A gentle cream cleanser and a simple moisturiser are the core. Patch-test new products and introduce active ingredients slowly, one at a time.

What ingredients should sensitive skin avoid?

Common triggers include added fragrance and essential oils, high concentrations of alcohol, harsh sulfates, and strong acids or retinoids used too often. Fewer, gentler ingredients generally mean fewer reactions — look for 'fragrance-free' rather than 'unscented'.

How do I calm reactive, red skin?

Simplify your routine to a gentle cleanser and a soothing moisturiser, pause any active ingredients, and use products with centella, panthenol or ceramides to repair the barrier. Reintroduce anything new slowly, and always patch-test first.
