A couple weeks ago I was asked to recommend a few products for sensitive skin. To be honest, I highly doubt I can do a better job than a derm or a cosmetologist, so instead I am going to share the products I currently use when my skin is feeling irritated. Truth is, I use resurfacing exfoliants – mainly acids – daily or almost daily, which is something I personally do not recommend if you want to play it safe. I do it for one reason only – to test the limits of my skin’s tolerance, so I can later determine the absolute maximum exfoliation it can take before it freaks out. As you might have guessed, sometimes those experiments end in itchy, red, irritated skin and scattered constellations of red, painful, non-acne bumps. At that point I completely stop whatever it is I was doing and switch to ultra-gentle routine that will help nourish my skin back to health. View Post
