How to calm skin now and relieve symptoms in the future"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Sensitive skin includes a wide range of issues\u2014from skin that easily flushes and allergies to certain ingredients to rosacea, a chronic skin condition that shows as persistent redness on the nose, chin, cheeks or forehead. (Rosacea can also also include small bumps or pimples, spider veins, and watery, irritated eyes.) Whether seasonal or severe, sensitive skin can be just as isolating and embarrassing as acne. Fortunately, there are steps you can take with your skincare routine, such as incorporating skincare for sensitive skin<\/a>, (and your lifestyle) to keep skin calm and collected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Cleanse<\/strong>
Cleansing is the ever-important first step in lifting impurities and balancing the skin. Look for a gentle, non-foaming, cream-based cleanser that can be used on dry skin. Why? Because water, especially at higher temperatures, can further aggravate sensitive skin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Treat<\/strong>
Serums and targeted treatments for sensitive can help soothe and balance skin that feels tight, itchy or inflamed. Sensitive Skin Soothing Serum contains hyaluronic acid to restore moisture\u2014this is essential because hydration can help relieve dryness (a precursor to skin that feels sensitive). And, it multitasks: we love Sensitive Skin Soothing Serum as a soothing post-shave treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Moisturize<\/strong>
As we mentioned, hydration is essential to relieving the look and feel of sensitivity. If you\u2019re looking for a way to boost much-needed moisture and help repair your skin\u2019s barrier, reach for Nutrient-Charged Water Gel. It\u2019s ultra-lightweight and absorbs easily into skin without the need for excessive rubbing that can cause friction and redness. And, it\u2019s clinically proven to repair skin\u2019s barrier in 30 minutes.* Doctor\u2019s tip: Applying your moisturizer to damp skin will also help seal in moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4: Protect<\/strong>
Sensitive skin is no different from any other skin type when it comes to UV defense. In fact, a SPF can help shield against environmental aggressors like blue light and pollution that can aggravate your skin. Protect your skin by adding a mineral SPF into your skin care routine for sensitive skin. Why go mineral? Even thought they\u2019re considered actives, they\u2019re gentler on skin than chemical sunscreens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
