SKINCARE TIPS FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
How do you recognize sensitive skin?
If you have sensitive skin, your skin will react more quickly to certain products and become irritated more easily than other skin types. This is usually due to the loss of protection from the skin barrier, allowing irritants to attack the skin more easily, making it more vulnerable. Sensitive skin can suffer from infections or allergic reactions and may often feel warm or be prone to redness and itching.
What can Witlof Skincare do for you?
It is important to use skincare products that are mild and soothing if you have sensitive skin. Artificial fragrances can cause irritated or sensitive skin. Witlof skincare only uses natural and organic essential oils to perfume (some of) our products, making them smell wonderful yet still very gentle on the skin.
1. The Gentle Cleansing Milk is ideal for gentle cleansing of the skin. The Cleansing Milk contains aloe vera juice, which intensively soothes and hydrates the skin and can cool inflamed or irritated skin.
2. The floral waters of rose, cornflower and witch hazel in the Balancing Toner have anti-inflammatory properties, are good at softening the skin and reducing redness. Apple cider vinegar has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help fight skin infections and soothe any irritations or redness.
3. Our Rich Facial Cream contains ceramides (or skin-identical lipids) that improve the function of the skin barrier. This results in less sensitivity, better hydration and damage repair. The cream also contains niacinamide, a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, which is great for soothing irritated skin and reducing redness. Finally, Immortelle oil provides intensive repair; this plant extract is also called 'the wound healer'.
4. The Hydrating Calming Lotion is a wonderful addition to this set due to its hydrating and calming effect.
The organic aloe vera juice intensely hydrates the skin and is combined with niacinamide and green tea for their restorative properties. Restorative plant extracts such as lavender, rosemary, immortelle, ginkgo biloba, and chamomile have been added to soothe your skin. The lotion cools skin that is red, hot, sunburned, or inflamed, allowing it to calm down.
