If you suffer from sensitive skin, then 2023 is the year to do something about it! The first step is choosing products that are all-natural and specifically designed to address sensitive skin conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea. The ingredients need to nurture your skin, allowing it to restore it’s natural balance, while empowering it to renew itself.

What are the best ingredients for a sensitive skin?

Before selecting the best organic and natural skincare products for your daily routine, you’ll need to consider what ingredients are actually going into the products – and therefore into your skin. Natural ingredients are by far your best option, but sometimes not all natural products are beneficial for a sensitive skin. You need to ensure that the plant extracts being used in your products are nurturing towards a sensitive skin. Here’s an example of some key ingredients:

• Rose: This extract has a harmonising power and is particularly beneficial to those prone to skin redness and enlarged capillaries. Rose extract will provide a protective barrier as well as soothe the redness.
• Borage: The blue-flowered borage, also known as the goodwill flower, consists of tannins, mucilages, and silica which soothe and fortify the skin.
• Anthyllis vulneraria: This helps normalise the complexion, regulating the skin’s oil production and diminishing the pore size.
• Jojoba oil: This is a gentle and non-allergenic ingredient which, when administered to compromised skin, can help reduce flare-ups.
• St John’s Wort: This ingredient is renowned for its many health benefits and, with its powerful flavonoids, is able to help protect the skin while soothing inflammation.
