Avoid The Following 5 Elements If You Have Sensitive Skin

We are very concerned about which products should be included in skincare. Are we as careful with ingredient selection as we are about this matter? Do you know which ingredients should be avoided in skincare? It is very important not to neglect this matter but to give importance to it. Because not knowing the right ingredients can harm your skin. Oily skin care is often talked about. Today I will tell you about the ingredients to be avoided if you have dry and sensitive skin.

Why is ingredient selection important?

If you add a new product to your skincare routine, it often causes breakouts or bumps on your face. Such events are very rare! Due to lack of proper understanding, the skin reacts instantly with redness or itching. In fact, it is not right to expect that all types of material will suit you. If you have dry and sensitive skin, be careful and select the right product.

If you have dry and sensitive skin, what ingredients should you avoid?

1. Salicylic acid:

Salicylic acid is a very familiar name in skin care, isn't it? This ingredient is very helpful but definitely for oily and acne prone skin. If your skincare products contain this ingredient, the skin will become more dry. Because its job is to control sebum production. So salicylic acid is not recommended for dry skin. But for acne-prone skin, this ingredient is a life saver.

2. Alcohol:

Many may think that alcohol is not a good ingredient, why is it included in skincare products! In fact, when present in moderate amounts, it increases the shelf life of the product, acting as a preservative. It also helps other ingredients to penetrate the face well. However, those with dry skin must stay away from this ingredient. Because it also over dries the skin resulting in eczema, psoriasis or rosacea. So check whether SD alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, denatured alcohol are present in your products. Because they are responsible for skin dryness and itchiness.

3. Benzene Peroxide:

An ingredient responsible for irritation on dry skin is benzol peroxide. Besides, there is the problem of skin excess drying. This ingredient is commonly used in acne treatment. It is said to be used sparingly, especially to reduce inflammation and bumps. However, it is by no means recommended for dry and sensitive skin.

4. Parabens:

Well, does paraben mean that the product is bad? What do you think? Some products are labeled paraben and sulfate free, which means they are mild! It has been banned in many countries. However, skincare ranges often contain parabens because this ingredient is a type of preservative, its function is to extend the shelf life of products. Some variants of parabens are safe for the skin at certain levels, many studies have shown. But it causes irritation and allergy problems in dry skin. So if your skin is dry and damaged then this ingredient should be avoided.

5. Fragrance or Perfume:

Usually we check the smell of a product first. Many people don't want to take it if it doesn't smell nice. While it may be good as a product, the smell is mind blowing, isn't it? But dry and sensitive skin identifies artificial fragrances as irritants. So perfume free products are the best option for you. If a skincare product doesn't suit you, check the ingredients list first to see if it contains fragrance or perfume. But don't think that having perfume is bad. Everyone's skin reacts to different ingredients.

Extra precautions for sensitive Skin:

If you have sensitive skin, remember that it is not a skin type but a condition of your skin. For those with sensitive skin, they need to be careful with skincare. Because no product suits normally on face. Redness, itching, burning or burning of the skin, rough texture, flaky patches etc. can also be seen. Dry environment has a lot of effect on sensitive skin. Let's find out which skincare products you should avoid if you have sensitive skin.

Physical Exfoliator:

Exfoliation is essential to remove dead skin cells. However, exfoliators that have more granular and harsh beads can damage your sensitive skin extremely. Scrubbing cannot be done if there is an icon on the face. So you have to choose the chemical exfoliator according to the skin concern.
