Products for sensitive skin

Finding products for sensitive skin can be difficult. Sensitive skin is easily damaged or irritated by outside influences. People with sensitive skin are likely to experience such discomforts as redness, stinging, burning and itching from skin care products, as well as extreme heat and cold. Your skin type is usually determined by heredity, but it can also be manipulated by things like medications such as Accutane.


So what products are right for sensitive skin? Look for products that are free of the usual ingredients: dyes, fragrance, lanolin, parabens or formaldehyde. I suggest Pharmaceutical Specialties Free and Clear Liquid Cleanser, along with Pharmaceutical Specialties Vanicream Skin Cream for your daily moisturizer. Also, because sensitive skin is usually greatly affected by sun exposure, I suggest a sunscreen such as Pharmaceutical Specialties Vanicream Sunscreen for Sensitive Skin SPF 30.
