Skin Concern
Sensitive Skin
If your skin reacts easily — redness, stinging, irritation — it’s not a weakness. It’s a signal your skin barrier needs gentle, consistent support.
What’s really happening with sensitive skin
Sensitive skin tends to respond more noticeably to environmental stress, new products, or harsh ingredients. It communicates more loudly when it feels overwhelmed.
This often points to a compromised skin barrier — not something to treat with stronger formulas, but with soothing, protective care.
Common triggers
- Fragrance-heavy products
- Alcohol & astringents
- Over-exfoliation
- Temperature extremes
- Stress & lack of sleep
- Introducing multiple new products at once
What helps sensitive skin
- Short ingredient lists with calming botanicals
- Barrier-supporting ingredients (ceramides, panthenol, oat)
- Avoiding fragrance, alcohol & harsh acids
- Introducing products slowly
Helpful reminder
Sensitive skin thrives on calm, simple routines. Consistency matters more than complexity.
