The Problem of Sensitive Skin
“Sensitive skin” is one of the most common searches in the beauty industry. For those who face the daily challenge of irritation, redness, flakiness, or blemishes due to environmental factors, makeup, or the harsh chemicals found in many skincare products, finding a regimen that works may seem impossible. In these cases, clients want more than just products achieve the desired results of each step. They want to do so without synthetic chemicals or stringent active ingredients, and if possible, soothe and comfort skin at the same time. DrJ Skincare’s line of products for sensitive skin do just that. They were formulated and rigorously tested to soothe and minimize irritation while achieving maximum results. Crafted from organic botanical ingredients, they never contain harsh chemicals like phthalates, parabens, or synthetic dyes or fragrances.
Here is our recommendation for a routine to manage and soothe sensitive skin while addressing concerns for a healthy, bright, and balanced complexion that feels as amazing as it looks.
Our Recommended Regimen:
Cleanse:
For those with sensitive skin, it’s important to cleanse regularly, since you may be more susceptible to irritation from pollen, dust, bacteria, and other environmental pollutants. DrJ’s Revitalizing Cleansing Gel For Sensitive Skin provides a deep clean look and feel through its gentle foaming action and a formula specially crafted not to irritate or dry skin. It features Calendula Flower Extract to support natural collagen production and soothing ingredients like Aloe, Rose Geranium, and Lavender Extracts.
Gently Exfoliate:
It’s important to remove dry and dead skin cells to prevent clogged pores, but exfoliation can be a particular challenge for those with sensitivity. Harsh chemical exfoliants and acids can worsen redness and irritation. Our Exfoliating Lotion features a combination of crushed natural Walnut Shell for gentle physical exfoliation and Papaya Extract for soft chemical exfoliation, while Chamomile soothes and boosts natural radiance.
Tone:
Sensitive skin is easily thrown out of balance. That’s why it’s essential to use a toner. Our Skin Revitalizing Hydrator features Hyaluronic Acid and D-Panthenol to soothe and hydrate skin while Aloe extract provides extra comfort. For an even more calming experience, try our Organic Facial Elixir with Chamomile and Lavender Extracts that nourish and calm while providing antioxidant benefits.
Hydration:
As with all skin types, hydration is very important to keep skin cells alive and healthy. Our Vita-B Hydrating Gel For Sensitive Skin is specially formulated to do just that while providing extra comfort along the way. Featuring our powerhouse combo of Aloe Vera and D-Panthenol, it soothes and calms sensitivity while visibly firming and tightening the skin.
Optional Eye Step:
If the skin around your eyes is a concern, you may also want to try our Rejuvenating Eye Repair Serum, which helps alleviate fine lines and dark circles with a blend of organic extracts and moisture-rich oils to help nourish and rejuvenate the eye area.
Tips for Soothing:
If you are experiencing redness or irritation as a result of your sensitive skin, you can use a cold pack to reduce bloodflow to the area and calm the redness. Be sure to wrap the pack in a piece of cloth, such as a dishtowel so as not to damage the skin further. You can also try our Skin Protective Recovery Concentrate, which features soothing Aloe and Chamomile extracts, plus Vitamin E to support the natural healing process of damaged or inflamed skin.
