As someone with sensitive skin, you know that taking care of your skin can be a challenge. You have to be extra careful with the products you use, and even everyday actions like washing your face can result in irritation. But don't worry, there are steps you can take to help your sensitive skin look and feel its best.
Here are the top five ways the skilled aestheticians at the ParsaMD Med Spa recommend to help your sensitive skin.
Use Gentle, Fragrance-free Products
One of the most important things you can do for your sensitive skin is to use gentle, fragrance-free products. Harsh ingredients and fragrances can cause irritation and inflammation, so look for products that are specifically formulated for sensitive skin. Choose a gentle cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen, and be sure to read the labels carefully to avoid any potential irritants.
Avoid Hot Showers and Baths
Hot water can be incredibly drying and irritating to sensitive skin, so it's important to avoid hot showers and baths. Instead, opt for lukewarm water and limit your time in the shower or bath to no more than 10 minutes. After you're done, pat your skin dry with a soft towel and immediately apply moisturizer to lock in hydration.
Wear Protective Clothing
If you have sensitive skin, it's important to protect it from the sun and other environmental irritants. Wear protective clothing, such as long-sleeved shirts, pants and hats, and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Be sure to reapply sunscreen every two hours, or more often if you're swimming or sweating.
Manage Stress
Stress can wreak havoc on your skin, causing inflammation and irritation. To help your sensitive skin stay healthy, it's important to manage your stress levels. Try meditation, deep breathing, yoga or other relaxation techniques to help you feel more relaxed and centered.
Moisturize Regularly
Keeping your skin moisturized is essential for maintaining healthy skin, especially if you have sensitive skin. SENTE Dermal Repair Ultra-Nourish is a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic moisturizer that is specifically formulated for sensitive skin. It contains a unique blend of lipids, ceramides, Omega fatty acids and vitamins to gently nourish your skin without irritations. Our aestheticians recommend applying it twice a day, once in the morning and once at night, to keep your skin hydrated and protected.
Taking care of sensitive skin requires a little extra effort, but it's well worth it to keep your skin looking and feeling its best. By using gentle products, avoiding hot showers and baths, wearing protective clothing, managing stress and moisturizing regularly with SENTE Dermal Repair Ultra-Nourish moisturizing cream, you can help your sensitive skin stay healthy and radiant.
