At Dermatology Affiliates, we know how frustrating it can feel when your skin reacts to even the simplest products. Delicate skin requires extra care, but with the right approach, you can still achieve healthy, radiant results.
Signs of Sensitive Skin
You may have delicate skin if you notice:
- Redness or irritation after using common products like soap or lotion
- Frequent dryness, flakiness or rough patches
- Rashes, breakouts or sores that take time to heal
- A tendency to react to perfumes, detergents or fragrances
Daily Habits That Help
Gentle lifestyle adjustments can go a long way in keeping your skin calm:
- Keep showers short and use lukewarm water
- Avoid heavily scented soaps, lotions and laundry products
- Moisturize daily to lock in hydration and reduce irritation
- Apply sunscreen every day, even in winter or on cloudy days
Choosing the Right Products
The right skincare routine doesn’t have to be complicated. We often recommend:
- Hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid
- Gentle antioxidants such as vitamin C
- Carefully monitored use of retinoids for anti-aging benefits
- Avoiding alcohol, harsh exfoliants or added fragrance
- Soothing ingredients like aloe vera to calm irritation
