Sensitive skin can make the quest for a perfect skincare routine a long and arduous journey. Symptoms range from redness, to excessive dryness or inflammation, often caused by underlying or even undiagnosed skin conditions such as rosacea, eczema or contact dermatitis.

The number of people facing skin sensitivity is growing more and more and this is mainly due to environmental factors like air pollution exposure and frequent changes in temperature but also life style and habits. A recent European study found that up to 52% of participants reported sensitivity of some kind.

DÉCAAR’s calming formulas contain the most effectual treatments for soothing and protecting the skin’s surface. Each product is infused with key vitamins and natural extracts to protect delicate skin from free radical damage and revitalize skin cells for a brighter and more even toned complexion. We recommend the following routine to mild reactions and control skin sensitivity.

Cleansing

Firstly, cleanse your skin with a gentle, soap-free cleanser and tepid water. DÉCAAR Delicate Foam Cleanser is specially formulated to cleanse, refresh and address the needs of sensitive skin. The rich foamy lather leaves the skin feeling refreshed and calm, as it contains Hamamelis Virginiana Leaf Water and Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract with antioxidant actions. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice is also one of its active ingredients, responsible to hydrate the skin and treat any wounds.

Soothing

Secondly, apply DÉCAAR Delicate Soothing Gel, to dry and sensitive areas, especially when you feel your skin irritated, dehydrated or after sun burns. It restores your skin’s natural barrier function, while it soothes and calms irritation. Its active ingredient Panthenol, deeply hydrates and relieves the skin, while Urea regulates skin moisture with its anti-ich and anti-microbial properties. Glycyrrhetinic acid, is responsible for calming the skin, minimizing signs of sensitization and improving the look of an uneven skin tone.

Serum

Thirdly, apply DÉCAAR Delicate Serum across your face and neck. Massage it gently paying attention to any dry patches, until it has all been absorbed. Apply day and night or when feeling your skin dry and irritated. The Delicate Serum is highly concentrated, providing an immediate calming effect as it reduces skin redness, itching and inflammation while boosting moisture levels and reinforcing skin’s natural barrier.

Protection

Finally, apply the hydrating daily moisturizer DÉCAAR Delicate Cream SPF15, designed to maintain a healthy, younger-looking skin while providing UV protection. This formula conditions your skins surface with vitamin B, which helps manage the negative results that oxidative stress can have on our skin- such as redness, fine lines, skin roughness- and maintain a fresh, healthy appearance.  The form of vitamin B5 easily penetrates the skin, allowing it to promote recovery and revitalization of skin cells. Its actives include Bisabolol, a superb skin soother for sensitive skin and the miracle remedy, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice.
