Sensitive Skin
Kind, calming care for reactive, easily-irritated skin. Our sensitive skin edit leads with a gentle face and body cleanser that washes without stripping or stinging, alongside a soothing exosome and niacinamide serum to comfort a stressed skin barrier, plus an aluminium-free aloe deodorant for delicate underarms. Fragrance-conscious, low-fuss formulas chosen for skin that reacts to everything — gentle enough for daily use.
A gentle routine for sensitive skin
Sensitive skin does best with a short, gentle routine: a mild cleanser, a soothing moisturiser with ingredients like ceramides or centella, and a daily mineral sunscreen. Fewer, calmer products beat a crowded shelf.
Introduce anything new one at a time and patch test first. This is general guidance, not medical advice, so see a professional for reactive or persistent concerns.
Sensitive Skin: frequently asked questions
What should I look for in products for sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin generally does best with gentle, fragrance-light or fragrance-free formulas, a short ingredient list, and soothing ingredients. Introduce one new product at a time and patch-test before full use. The formula notes are on each product page. This is general guidance, not medical advice.
How do I choose a gentle cleanser for sensitive skin?
Look for a mild, non-stripping cleanser — a soft cream, gel or milk texture that leaves skin comfortable rather than tight. Avoid harsh exfoliating or heavily fragranced washes. Our guide on [choosing a gentle cleanser](/blogs/style-guide/gentle-cleanser-for-sensitive-skin-how-to-choose-the-right-face-wash-2026) walks through it. This is general guidance only.
How do I patch-test a new product?
Apply a small amount to a discreet area (like the inner forearm or behind the ear) once a day for a few days and watch for redness or irritation before using it on your face. Introduce one product at a time so you can identify any reaction. This is general guidance, not medical advice.
Can sensitive skin use active ingredients?
Often yes, but start slowly — lower strengths, less frequent use, and one active at a time — and always patch-test. If your skin is reactive or you have a condition, check with a professional. This is general guidance, not medical advice.
