Different ingredients appear in each Skin Care product. If you have normal skin type, the ingredients in general skin care products will not cause skin discomfort. But things are different for sensitive skin. The ingredients in some skincare products can be very harmful to sensitive skin. Next, let’s learn together what skin care products should not be used on sensitive skin! A must-see for those with sensitive skin!

What ingredients should not be used in skin care products for sensitive skin?

1. Salicylic acid, fruit acid

Salicylic acid and fruit acids are found in many skin care products. I believe everyone is familiar with these two ingredients. However, these two ingredients are harmful to the skin, and excessive use can easily lead to skin sensitivity or allergies. For those with sensitive skin, if you use skin care products containing salicylic acid and fruit acids, it will only make your skin more sensitive! Therefore, friends with sensitive skin must avoid skin care products with these ingredients and try to choose skin care products with soothing ingredients.

2. Alkaline

Edible vinegar is highly alkaline, and many skin care products also contain alkaline ingredients. Our normal skin is generally weakly acidic. If you use skin care products containing alkaline, this substance will easily react with the skin, resulting in skin burning or even allergies. Therefore, those with sensitive skin that are prone to allergies themselves should not use skin care products containing alkaline ingredients, otherwise it will add insult to injury and the skin will become more sensitive. ~

3. Exfoliation

Exfoliation is essential for normal skin types, but it is optional for sensitive skin. Many skin care products usually have exfoliating effects, but this ingredient is not suitable for frequent use on sensitive skin. Therefore, friends with sensitive skin should not choose skin care products with exfoliating effects. It is okay to use them once in a while, but they must not be used for a long time. Remember not to choose facial cleansers or makeup removers that are too powerful, otherwise the skin will be damaged and difficult to repair.

4. Alcohol, essence

Many friends like to open the lid and smell it when buying skin care products, and they prefer to buy skin care products that are more fragrant. However, skin care products with too strong fragrance often contain a lot of essence and alcohol. Alcohol and fragrance are harmful substances to facial skin. If you have sensitive skin, you should avoid skin care products with these ingredients, otherwise they will irritate facial skin and make the skin more and more sensitive!

5. Lead, mercury

Friends with sensitive skin should not be greedy for cheap and choose low-priced skin care products. Such skin care products often contain many harmful ingredients such as lead and mercury. Long-term use will damage the base layer of the skin, causing the skin to get worse and worse! Friends with sensitive skin should choose skin care brands with natural, safe, mild and trustworthy ingredients that will not harm their skin.
