Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin care is much more than just choosing the right sensitive skin care product. To provide the best sensitive skin care, you need to maintain skin's natural moisture – dehydrated skin is more vulnerable to immune responses, infections, sun damage, and sub-clinical irritation. People with sensitive skin may react quickly to chemicals, heat or wind by developing red, blotchy and irritated skin. Skin that is reactive to products, sun and heat benefits form gentle ingredients like aloe vera, citric and lactic acid.
