6 Ways to Manage Sensitive Skin


Keeping the skin radiant, beautiful and youthful is challenging for almost everyone was we grow older. And if you have the challenge of living with dry or sensitive skin, then that challenge suddenly becomes even greater. The routine required for keeping the skin looking its best often requires a lot more care and consideration.

Fortunately, there are a number of simple ways that you can get a handle on sensitive skin and continue to look your best. We spoke with the skincare and beauty researchers at Kristals Cosmetics to help us find the best skincare approaches for people with sensitive skin.

#1 Shower Warm, Not Hot
Hot showers may feel great, but hot water is actually a source of skin irritation and is known to strip vital moisture from sensitive skin. Opt for shorter, warmer showers rather than lingering in hot showers.

#2 Watch Out for Foaming Products
Years of marketing have convinced us that “foam” is synonymous with “clean,” but the stark reality is that the foam is created by chemicals, often sulfates, that can irritate the skin. By choosing more natural cleansers and otherskincare products, you can avoid these harsh chemicals.

#3 Always Wear Sunscreen
Nothing wreaks havoc on the skin quite like the sun, and this is doubly true for those with sensitive skin. Wearing sunscreen at all times outdoors is a must for those with sensitivities.

#4 Cut Back on Facials
Facials often feel great and make the skin clean and soft. But when you’re coping with sensitive skin, the treatment might just be more than you can handle. Redness, rashes and other problems are unfortunate side effects of some facials.

#5 Be Wary of Fragrances
Like products with foam, fragrances in skin products are another sign of dozens of unknown chemicals that can wreak potential havoc on your skin. They can be tough to avoid, but do your homework to find unscented products or products with “no artificial fragrances.”

#6 Be Choosy with Makeup
Finally, makeup can sometimes be tricky business for sensitive skin. Blue eye shadow, for example, as well as mineral makeup and bronzing powder cause problems for some people. It may be a trial and error process to find what works for you.
