Skincare for sensitive skin

Soothing skincare for sensitive skin

Sensitive skin reacts easily: it can become red, feel tight, sting or itch when exposed to wind, cold or products it doesn't like. That's why it's important to hydrate and strengthen the skin's barrier, the outermost layer that retains moisture and keeps irritants out, with a simple routine and products your skin gets on with.

Face cream for sensitive skin

24 Hour Cream is made for dry and sensitive skin that needs extra moisture and soothing, but it is light and non-greasy. Anti Redness Cream soothes the skin and reduces redness with organic oat and aloe vera. Skin Balance face cream with soothing liquorice root extract and moisturising hyaluronic acid is particularly good for young and sensitive skin. If you also want to care for fine lines, Vitamin A Treatment contains HPR Retinoid, a new form of vitamin A that works directly in the skin without first needing to be converted, and the cream is formulated so that sensitive skin can tolerate it too. All four creams are fragrance-free and dermatologically tested, and 24 Hour Cream, Skin Balance face cream and Vitamin A Treatment are also AllergyCertified.

Facial cleansers for sensitive skin

Cleansing is often the step where sensitive skin becomes irritated. Choose a mild cleanser that doesn't leave skin feeling tight:

• Cleansing Milk fragrance-free cleanses gently and helps the skin retain moisture. It is made for dry, sensitive and mature skin.
• Cleansing Mousse cleanses with mild, plant-derived cleansing ingredients, is free from SLS and SLES and cares for skin with organic aloe vera and provitamin B5, which moisturise and soften.
• Skin Balance cleansing mousse is a mild and gentle cleansing mousse with organic aloe vera for young or sensitive skin.

All three are AllergyCertified and dermatologically tested. See all our facial cleansing products.

Fragrance-free and AllergyCertified: what does it mean?

Fragrance is one of the most common reasons skin reacts to cosmetics, so if you have sensitive skin, it's a good idea to choose fragrance-free products. AllergyCertified is an independent certification in which all ingredients are assessed for the risk of allergy and skin irritation. See all AllergyCertified products or the full range of fragrance-free skincare.

Care for your skin consistently morning and evening with a cleanser, a moisturising serum such as Hyaluronic Serum and a cream, giving it time to find its balance. In the morning, finish with sun protection: Daily Sun Shield SPF 50 (Daily Sun Shield SPF 50) is fragrance-free and particularly good for skin prone to redness. Try new products on a small area first. If redness is your main concern, see face care for redness, or find your routine.
