Do You Suffer From Sensitive Skin? Here’s What You Do.

Written by Peter Albertonach on December 28th, 2009

If you’ve got sensitive skin it might be getting you down. If so I’ve got some sensitive skin care tips that I can share with you.

Because some people don’t have sensitive skin and some people do have sensitive skin. And if it’s you that has sensitive skin you might need to.

All that annoying blotchiness, redness, inflammation and itchiness can often be controlled.

And that’s not to say sensitive skin conditions can be controlled simply for everyone, you may have a specific condition that you should consult a dermatologist for. But why not try some simple stuff first and see how it works for you.

So if you suffer then the first thing you need to do is to examine all those creams, blushes, foundations, moisturizers and so on that you use now, because it can often be those anti aging skincare products and cosmetics and more that are causing the problem.

I write extensively about the nasty ingredients that are found in many big brand name cosmetics and skin care products on my website.

Things like parabens. If you haven’t read about parabens yet they are a commonly found in many cosmetics and skin care products. Parabens are a range of chemicals that are cheap to use and work as a preservative. And there is quite some doubt about the safety of parabens. For example the cosmetics database lists 2 parabens (there’s quite a few) as a hazard of at least 7 or 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. 7 or 8 is “high hazard”.

And there’s no reason why the presence of parabens would not of itself cause sensitive skin problems. It may or may not, but it’s worth asking the question.

And so if you change your products, cosmetics, skin care products or even soaps and shampoos and more then this alone may well fix your sensitive skin problems.

And the first time I came across this it was a personal experience. My 8 year old daughter had her first ballet concert coming up and she got made up for it, as you do.

Within a few hours her entire face had broken out in a rash, and we decided right there not to use those cosmetics again.

So have a good look at your cosmetics and skin care products and if they’re big brand name products from your local store then the chances are that they have some nasty ingredients in them and that itself could be causing sensitive skin care problems.

Use low allergenic laundry detergents too. There are many detergents that also contain ingredients that may cause skin reactions in people with all sorts of skin types. In particular wash sheets and pillow cases with low or non allergenic detergents. Rinse well and avoid any detergents, as well as skin care products and cosmetics, with fragrances.

Fragrances are also chemicals and can cause skin reactions for all skin types, including those with oily skin and healthy skin.

And if you have specific skin allergy problems a good allergy specialist can also find out if there are any other products that you could be using that are also causing problems.

What you need to do is to try out a range of low allergenic range of natural cosmetics and natural skin care products and find out how your skin reacts to these. You’ll probably notice an immediate improvement.

And fortunately there are 2 excellent natural skin care and natural cosmetics companies that make fine products that will be perfect for many people with sensitive skin, and fortunately these are excellent skin care products and cosmetics as well, and price competitive.

That’s because they don’t even try and compete with the big brand name skin care and anti aging products. They don’t advertise on TV which contributes hugely to keeping the cost of their products down. They rely largely on the quality of their products to sell their products for them through word of mouth.

Most of those big brand name products that you might be buying now will do very little and are made down to a price.

So there’s some sensitive skin tips. If they don’t work consult an expert like a good dermatologist, but just doing these things may well clear up your sensitive skin.
