It can be difficult to determine what skin type you have without consulting with an esthetician. But a little trick is to pay attention to how your skin responds to changing conditions and skincare products. It’s key to remember that, while your skin can fluctuate or have periods of sensitivity, in whatever way your skin presents the majority of the time is the type of skin you have. Many different skin types can fall under the umbrella of sensitive skin. So how do you know if you have sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin may be prone to the following:
- Easily breaking out
- Inflamed throughout the day or after cleansing
- Feeling dry or tight after cleansing
- Flaking or peeling
- Breaking out in rashes or redness when exposed to certain products
- Skin tingles and flushes when products are applied
Morning/Evening Skincare Routine For Sensitive Skin
Cleanse
Wash with a gentle yet effective face cleanser that doesn’t strip your skin barrier but removes excess sebum and dirt while nourishing your skin.
The Farmhouse Fresh Green Tea Milk Wash cleanser featured in our Spring Facial is a creamy, PH-balanced daily cleanser that gently removes makeup and dirt (even mascara and sunscreen) that helps boost your skin’s moisture content.
Tone
Toning is an important step in every morning skincare routine, especially when it comes to prepping the skin for makeup and keeping it hydrated, healthy, and bright all day long.
The Farmhouse Fresh Vitamin Berry Facial Tonic featured in our Spring Facial is a refreshing alcohol-free rose water tonic that instantly hides the look of pores as it smooths skin and boosts its moisture content.
Serum
Serums have the ability to increase the efficacy of other products, including moisturizers and masks. Choosing a serum that targets your skin care needs can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dull skin.
The Farmhouse Fresh Green Fixer Calming Elixir Organic Matcha Serum featured in our Spring Facial is an antioxidant serum that visibly reduces the look of redness, replenishes moisture, and soothes your complexion.
Moisturize
And to really seal in moisture, apply hydrating face cream after using a cleanser, toner, and serum. Those with sensitive skin should never skip this step as it’s crucial in keeping the natural facial barrier intact.
The Farmhouse Fresh Fields of Green Organic Matcha Ultra-Soothing Moisturizer featured in our Spring Facial is a luxe, velvety-whipped moisturizer that delivers intense hydration and soothing nourishment for even the most sensitive skin types.
Apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or Higher
A big step in the skincare game is protecting it from harmful UV rays that promote dryness and aging. Mineral sunscreens containing zinc oxide can be especially powerful when spending long hours in direct sun and are clean from harsh chemicals.
Before switching up your skincare routine entirely, it would be helpful to schedule our Spavia {LOCATION_TITLE} Thyme Eraser Spring Renewal facial, which will help introduce high-quality, natural products that work especially well with sensitive skin. Then, start adding in each featured Farmhouse Fresh product to create the perfect springtime skincare routine!
