Skincare for sensitive skin

 

Sensitive skin is caused by a weakened skin barrier which makes your skin more reactive to environmental factors. So, you are more likely to suffer from red rashes; dry, flaky skin patches; or tight-feeling skin, among other things.

These ingredients are perfect for sensitive skin:

• Calendula: is a very versatile ingredient. It reduces redness and calms irritation. What’s more, it accelerates wound healing and provides intense hydration to your skin. Calendula is also rich in antioxidants that protect your skin from free radicals. Plus, it is a perfect ingredient to treat eczema or rosacea.
• Collagen: firms your skin, which you probably already knew. But it also strengthens your skin barrier, so your skin gets irritated less easily. It stimulates skin repair and smooths out fine dehydration lines.
• Chamomile: chamomile is another great anti-inflammatory ingredient, reducing redness and irritation. It is packed with flavonoids so your skin is better protected from free radicals. It stimulates skin cell regeneration and retains moisture, helping your skin stay better hydrated.
• Cucumber: has a high water content, so it provides intense hydration to your skin. Also, it is rich in vitamin C, a perfect ingredient to soothe sensitive skin. On top of this, it is known for its cooling effect and it evens out your skin tone and dark circles.
• Marshmallow root: is packed with mucopolysaccharides that form a protective layer on your skin. This protective layer not only strengthens your skin barrier, it is moisture-binding, which helps keep your skin hydrated for longer. Marshmallow root is also rich in anti-inflammatory flavonoids.

Extra skincare tips for sensitive skin

• Take care in the sun. Always use a sunscreen with a high SPF, wear a sun hat and sun glasses and seek shade if possible.
• Choose unscented products or scented with a mild perfume. Strong perfumes can cause irritation.
• Hydrate properly. Well-hydrated skin is better protected!
