TIPS FOR SENSITIVE SKIN

Sensitive-skin friends, this one's for you. Whether your skin is occasionally reactive or always in need of extra TLC, understanding what it needs and how to care for it is the path to cool, calm, protected skin. Here are some tips to keep in mind. 


#1 USE A pH-BALANCED CLEANSER

This helps maintain your skin’s natural oil and pH-balance—a must for healthy, non-reactive skin. 

Try:

 PINK CLOUD Cleanser  

A pH-balanced daily cleanser that’s gentle on even the most sensitive skin

Or for your body,

PINK CLAY Cleansing Bar Soap

A gentle soap that cleanses without stripping or drying out your skin.

 

#2 KEEP SKIN HYDRATED 

Sometimes sensitivity is a matter of dehydration. A daily hydrating serum will help balance water levels + avoid flakiness. 

Try:


  CLOUD JELLY Serum 

A hydrating serum made with tremella mushroom—a super ingredient that holds up to 500x its weight in water + outperforms topical hyaluronic acid! 

Or for your body,

 COCO ROSE Body Oil

A ultra-moisturizing and nourishing body oil that lives skin silky-smooth and hydrated.

#3 PROTECT YOUR SKIN BARRIER 

Generally, when your skin’s defensive layer is strong, reactivity is low. Incorporate products that strengthen + repair it on a regular basis. 

Try:

 MOON FRUIT Sleep Mask 

An overnight mask powered by 1% bakuchiol + hydrating super fruits that locks in hydration to help protect the skin barrier.  


BONUS: TREAT VISIBLE REDNESS 

Soothe + calm irritation with known plant remedies like CBD or blue tansy oil. 


 Try EMERALD CBD + Adaptogens Glow Oil OR

  LAPIS Face Oil 

EMERALD is great for red, reactive skin. LAPIS is great for red, blemish-prone skin.
