4 Tips To Maintain And Treat Sensitive Skin

Are you tired of trying endless methods to deal with dry and irritated skin? Perhaps you have sensitive skin that needs special care and attention. But don’t worry, sensitive skin is not uncommon. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to get your red, sensitive skin under control. Read them below:

Don’t wash too often

Cleanliness is vital, but too much of anything is never good. Human skin needs certain healthy oil to maintain a barrier. When you cleanse or shower too many times, the oil washes away. While showering twice a day is fine, be sure not to cleanse your face again and over.

Keep warm showers short

A hot shower soothes and calms our nerves, but it is also irritating and aggressive with our skin. You don’t have to shower in freezing cold water;aim for a lukewarm water shower instead. As the water dries out the skin, keep showers relatively short.

Use the right products

While showering, go for products that are made for sensitive and delicate skin - including shampoo and conditioner. Babo Botanical’s Moisturizing Conditioner, for instance, is a specially formulated hair care product for sensitive hair and scalp. To cleanse your face, use Acure charcoal lemonade facial scrub that nourishes your skin.

Spot-test new products

Whether it’s a face cream or body lotion, don’t apply it all over your face or body the first day. No matter what skincare products or cosmetics you pick under the sun, be sure to spot-test it on a small area of your skin. If the product irritates your skin or causes itchiness, it isn’t right for you.

Sensitive skin requires a little more gentleness and care than other skin types. Keep these helpful tips in mind to avoid and manage redness, itchiness, and dryness - all symptoms of the sensitive skin.

Cheers

Stay Healthy, Stay Fit.
