Caring For Sensitive Skin

By Jessica Sparks

The right sensitive skin care routine begins with the right products, and to find the right products, you must first determine the degree of your skin sensitivity. Are you unable to tolerate wool, latex or other materials/ if so, then you have what is known as truly sensitive skin. If you blush, itch, and sunburn easily, then you are probably naturally fair-skinned. Some people are both fair skinned and have sensitive skin, while still others experience skin problems related to food allergies and/or stress.

Natural skin care products containing herbal ingredients such as aloe vera and jojoba oil are generally recommended for people with very sensitive skin. It is also important to drink plenty of water and pay attention to food sensitivities that many trigger break outs. When shopping for natural skin care products, pay attention to labels that say things like non comedogenic, and all natural ingredients. Artificial ingredients can trigger skin flare ups, so it is important to be careful when choosing products.

The right skin care regimen can go a long way towards protecting your sensitive skin. It is important to cleanse, exfoliate, tone, and moisturize each week. Choose products that are designed for sensitive skin, astringent free, and of course, contain natural ingredients. Skin care professionals recommend that you cleanse your skin everyday and moisturize and tone one to three times a week. Exfoliation is also important, but the frequency of exfoliation depends on the condition of your skin.

The best way to care for your sensitive skin is to choose the right products. Pay attention to ingredients and labels, and to any sensitive skin related food or stress triggers, and you will be on your way towards more beautiful, radiant skin. - 17269
