Tips for sensitive skin care
1. Use sensitive skin care products only (i.e. the products that are marked for sensitive skin care only). Also, check the instructions/ notes on the product to see if there are specific restrictions/warnings associated with the product).
2. Even within the range of sensitive skin care products, choose the one that has minimum preservatives, colourings and other additives
3. Do not use toners. Most of them are alcohol based and are not recommended for sensitive skin.
4. Wear protective gloves when doing laundry or other chemical based cleaning. If you are allergic to rubber, you can wear cotton gloves below the rubber ones.
5. Another important tip for ‘sensitive skin care’ is to avoid excessive exposure to sun. Apply sunscreen lotion before getting out in the sun.
6. Avoiding exposure to dust and other pollutants is also important for sensitive skin care. So, cover yourself adequately before going out.
7. Use hypoallergenic, noncomedogenic moisturizer as a sensitive skin care product (if there is none specifically labelled as a sensitive skin care product)
8. Use soap-free and alcohol free cleansers. Cleanse your face whenever you return from spending time out doors.
9. Do not scrub or exfoliate too hard. It can cause reddishness and even inflammation.
10. Do not leave the makeup on for too long. Use hypoallergenic makeup- removers.
