Sensitive skin can manifest in various ways, including redness, irritation, dry or flaky patches, or even a bumpy rash. Skin may feel tight, dehydrated, and certain products may cause a stinging sensation when applied. If you have sensitive skin, you’re likely more reactive to active ingredients. The optimal approach for sensitive skincare involves calming, soothing, hydrating, and anti-inflammatory formulations. The goal is to adopt a gentle skincare routine that keeps your complexion comfortable, moisturized, and strong, without triggering any flare-ups or reactions. Cooling ingredients like aloe vera, hydrating hyaluronic acid, conditioning vitamin E, and essential oils are all soothers for sensitive skin.
During more reactive moments, it’s essential to have a soothing face serum in your skincare arsenal. You might also consider a calming face mask for sensitive skin to supplement your daily skincare routine. Investing in a rich, conditioning, restorative daily moisturizer and night cream is crucial for sensitive skin. Just like with skincare, it’s important to ensure the makeup you use is suitable for sensitive skin. At Glo, all our makeup is clean, talc-free, and mineral-based, meaning it’s nourishing and supportive for all skin types.
