Irritated skin

Gentle care for irritated or reactive skin

Irritated skin reacts to external triggers: products, temperature, friction or stress. The skin barrier is temporarily or structurally weakened, making the skin more sensitive than normal. The approach is to radically simplify: fewer products, fewer ingredients, only mild and fragrance-free formulas. In this collection, you’ll find plant oils and hydrosols selected for their gentleness and compatibility with irritated skin.

Which products are suitable for irritated skin?

For irritated skin, mildness is the primary selection criterion. Jojoba oil is well tolerated by almost all skin types thanks to its wax ester composition, with no fragrance or active ingredients. Hemp seed oil is an alternative with a high linoleic acid content that suits the needs of a damaged skin barrier. Bulgarian rose water is a mild, alcohol-free aqueous step that prepares the skin for the oil without causing irritation.

For irritated skin, always do a patch test before using a new product. You can read more about gentle care in our blogs about signs of a disrupted skin barrier and how the skin barrier becomes disrupted.
