TLC for Hypersensitive Skin

Hypersensitive skin is characterized as skin that is extremely reactive and becomes intolerant and irritated easily. Skin that is hypersensitive generally needs products that are free of ingredients that are found to be irritating to the skin. Many times hypersensitivity is associated with other skin conditions like rosacea and dermatitis.

Those who suffer from acne will also have to deal with hypersensitive skin as well which becomes difficult to treat. To help reduce breakouts without irritation try Avene Diacneal Gel Cleanser morning and night followed with your regular skin care routine.

For light moisture, Pharmaceutical Specialties Vanicream Lite Skin Care Lotion can be used over the entire body and face. This moisturizer is perfect for those with eczema or very dry skin.

Sensitive skin actually needs stimulation to help it build resistance to future irritation. Refine 4% from CosMedix is great for night time use to regenerate collagen and elastin production and to slough off dead skin cells.

Sun protection, although extremely important for all skin types and conditions, is even more important for those with hypersensitive skin because they tend to react to sun exposure moreso. California Baby SPF 18 Moisturizing Sunscreen – Everyday/ Year-Round works well for extremely sensitive skin because it is formulated for the delicate skin of a baby.
