Sensitive skin is not easy to deal with, it requires a lot of care and attention. During the winter, sensitive skin can suffer because of the dry, cold air; this may require you to take extra care of it. Therefore, it is essential to have a skincare routine for your skin to avoid discomfort and flare ups.
Below are some tips and skincare advice on how to repair damaged and sensitive skin, read on.
Gentle and natural products are friendlier to sensitive skin. Some products are specifically designed to be tolerated by all skin type, like the Blue Lagoon skin treatments for example: this skincare line has a mineral moisturizing cream, mineral intensive cream and silica purifying shampoo, all safe for sensitive skin.
Moisturize your face more in the winter because it is constantly exposed to cold dray air, and this can be detrimental if you have sensitive skin. At least 2-3 times per week, apply a sleeping mask with moisturizing ingredients to help you stay nourished overnight without irritation. The ingredients will hydrate your face and you will wake up with a beautiful, dreamy glow.
Facial oils have nutrients and vitamins that give the skin extra nourishment. Use facial oil with fewer ingredients because it is less likely to trigger sensitive skin. You can use jojoba oil with natural anti-inflammatory and healing properties that will help relieve skin irritation. Moreover, it has vitamin E, which is a great antioxidant for the skin.
Make sure you have a face cleaning routine and when washing your face, avoid rubbing; instead, pat dry. People with sensitive skin often react negatively to dirt and debris. Reduce touch with your skin to prevent inflammation. Your face has the most delicate skin on your body. Refrain from scratching because doing so will irritate you.
The skin can suffer significant injury from the sun’s damaging rays. The sun is the leading cause of wrinkles and dark patches on the skin. It is crucial to apply sunscreen every day, even if you do not have any plans to venture outside or visit the beach. For all-day protection, experts advise using sunscreens with SPH 15 or higher.
Exfoliating sensitive skin with products such as body scrubs may cause more damage to the skin. A gentle way to exfoliate sensitive skin is using a soft washcloth or a cotton pad. Apply oil such as jojoba on damp skin and use a washcloth to gently move it over your face in circular motions for about 30 seconds. Do this not more than once a week to avoid irritating your skin.
Products with fragrances can irritate, leading to redness on the skin. Choose fragrance-free products for better skin health and to avoid inflammation.
Always keep in mind that when the skin gets sore, dry, rough and red or gets patches, it is good to visit a dermatologist. The condition may also be due to age or genetic skin disorder leading to what we call sensitive skin.
