A calming routine for sensitive skin
Fewer products, gentler formulas and a strong barrier. How to stop the sting.
Quick answer: Use a gentle cleanser, a barrier-repair moisturiser and mineral SPF, patch test new products and introduce actives slowly.
Strip it back
Fewer products mean fewer triggers.
Repair the barrier
Ceramides, glycerin and niacinamide support the skin's defences.
Patch test
Try new products behind the ear for a few days.
Gentle treatments
LED and the ZO Restorative Peel suit sensitive skin.
