The Master List
Sensitive skin products that passed the test are broken down by type + can be found when hovering over “My Tried + Trues”, then “Master Product List” in the Menu Bar.
I have personally tested all of these products for at least 2 weeks + have liked them.
Quick Notes, Worth Knowing
Since discovering I have sensitive skin, I’ve spent several years trying products + testing different routines.
From my personal experience, treating sensitive skin acne begins in the shower. What is used daily to cleanse us can sometimes be a major hidden factor.
Oh, Sensitive Skin, You.
Bear in mind, sensitive skin & easily sensitized skin has a range with some people more intensely affected than others. (Think reaction level.)
Also, not everyone reacts to the same ingredients, even in the sensitive skin world.
Basically, though we do have things in common, we are also a bit of a catch-all.
Listen to your skin & follow its lead. Come to know its dislikes just as you would learn what your body’s not cool with eating.
As I hope for this site to be a gathering point for others with similar skin needs, I welcome feedback & want to hear how they’ve worked for you!
I will leave an open comment section below each product list.
