What is sensitive skin?

Are you using the right skincare products? Having sensitive skin just means that your skin is more prone to developing negative reactions to particular cosmetic or skincare products as compared to normal skin types. It’s also known as hyper-reactive skin. While other skin types may have a higher tolerance to certain ingredients, those with sensitive skin may experience one or more of the symptoms below.

Signs and symptoms of sensitive skin

Typical symptoms of sensitive skin are redness, bumps, flaking and a tingling or burning sensation. Some people may even experience tightness or itchiness upon coming into contact with specific ingredients found in skincare or make-up products.

What causes sensitive skin and irritation?

In case you’re wondering about the causes of sensitive skin, these negative reactions are usually triggered by a number of things, especially certain ingredients such as alcohol or synthetic fragrances that often elicit an inflammatory response from sensitive skin.

Clarins’ range of soothing skincare products for sensitive skin

If you have sensitive skin, it’s essential to use gentle skincare products with soothing and calming properties. Clarins is well-versed with the concerns and challenges of sensitive skin, which is why our range of plant-based skincare for sensitive skin are carefully formulated without alcohol, fragrance or harsh ingredients that may irritate the skin.

The Gentle Foaming Soothing Cleanser is a gentle cleanser for sensitive skin that is formulated with Shea Butter, Moringa and Roman Chamomile to remove dirt, sebum, make-up and environmental pollutants in a soothing lather that purifies and comforts your skin. Instead of harsh chemicals, it utilises the natural cleansing properties of Organic Soapwort to keep your skin clean and refreshed in the morning and evening.

Exfoliating is an important step for a healthy, blemish-free complexion. The Gentle Peeling Smooth Away Cream is a plant-based clay mask for sensitive skin. Made with Great Burdock extracts and soothing Primrose, this mask helps to eliminate dead skin cells and prevent clogged pores, so your skin stays clean and radiant. Primrose is a special ingredient because it retains the skin’s pH levels and also improves skin elasticity.

Don’t forget to tone your skin with the Toning Soothing Lotion, an alcohol-free toner infused with Roman Chamomile and Organic Purple Coneflower extracts to rebalance the skin. This toner is perfect for sensitive skin because it comforts, hydrates and softens the skin without triggering allergies.

Lastly, keep your skin moisturised with the Santal Face Treatment Oil. This soothing and non-comedogenic face oil is enriched with an aromatic blend of Lavender, Sandalwood and Cardamom to calm and nourish the skin. Apply it on cleansed skin in the morning and evening.
