Sensitive Skin and Facials: Do They Mix?
Despite popular thinking, there’s no reason not to enjoy facials even if your skin is Sensitive. The trick is in how the facial is done and also how you treat your skin after the fact. With the right combination, you can enjoy facials without irritating your skin at all.
Gentle Products
It’s very important to use the right products for your skin type when having a facial done. Talk to the beautician ahead of time if you are having a professional one, or take the time to look at your options if you are doing it at home. When doing your own facial, you can even test the products you plan to use on your wrist or neck, to see if they will irritate.
There are literally hundreds of products out there developed specifically for sensitive skin. This doesn’t mean that all of them will be suited to your particular skin, but you can certainly count on them being far gentler than regular skin care products. These are the best ones to start with if you aren’t sure.
Keep It Simple
A facial doesn’t have to be a huge process using a dozen different products. In fact, the more products that you use, the more likely you are to have a bad reaction. So keep it to the basics, an astringent for oily skin, a soothing facial mask and a moisturizing lotion. You can use a warm cloth or steam to help open the pores of the face and expel impurities, but take it easy since heat can also irritate sensitive skin.
Water is your best friend. Not only should you be drinking plenty to keep your skin clear and glowing, you’ll also want to make sure that you wash your face frequently with it. Rinse off any excess product completely before applying another and you will keep the skin problems to a minimum.
Using natural ingredients such as cucumbers on your eyes and avocado or honey as a facial mask can really help your skin, too, even if you can’t tolerate most skin care products. Avoid anything that has acid in it, like pineapple, since this can cause irritations.
After the Facial
Whether you opt for a professional facial or one at home, keep in mind that you don’t need to apply a bunch of products afterwards. In fact, you’ll be far better off just washing with plain water and some specially formulated soap. Adding more skin care products to the mix tends to cause rashes and irritations, which can be very easily avoided by simply sticking to water for a few days after the facial.
Daily Skin Care for Sensitive Skin
You will want to take good care of your skin both before and after having a facial. Sensitive skin is rarely better off left alone, so look for simple products that will enhance your natural beauty without causing problems. One thing to keep in mind is the number of ingredients. A huge list of ingredients probably means you’ll have problems, whereas a skin care product with just two or three ingredients is going to be far easier on the skin in most cases.
Treat your skin with care, wash it every day and make sure that you don’t overtax it when you have a facial. Let it rest for a couple of days before and after the fact to ensure the best results.
Just because you have sensitive skin doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy having a good facial every now and then. You may not be able to do them too often, but once in a while, with the right products, should be just fine.

The Secret Facial Cream That Really Works
Facial cream and facial moisturizers can make you look years younger. That is what advertisements keep saying. And maybe you’re sick and tired of hearing these promises That don’t ever come true. My advice is to stay out of high end department stores with their hollow claims and expensive price tags. Would you like to learn about a facial cream that really truly does what it says? But first, what is a good facial moisturizer? Let’s find out.
How Facial Moisturizers Work
A good facial moisturizer or face cream will give back the skin’s natural oils that was lost. It will do this by not making your face feel oily. Most skin care products fail to do what should be easily accomplished. But there are skin care products that can moisturize and help your skin health. As a result, less wrinkles. Expensive department store products can’t do this. Why?
Store Products Are Mostly Worthless
The reason that store products usually are of very little value is because they put cost and profit as their main considerations. Cost and profit, of course, is important to every company. But when it is paramount then quality and effectiveness is usually sacrificed.
Speaking of quality, that is the biggest problem over the counter manufacturers face. When a company must make a product for a few cents and charge dollars to make a profit, many inferior cheap ingredients are put in the finished product. Their goal, not being quality, is much of the time a sweet smelling product in a fancy looking package that makes your skin feel good. But is ineffective.
Best Skin Care Advice
Remember this one fact even if everything else I say is forgotten: Any chemical ingredient that you put on your skin will most likely find its way into your bloodstream. Knowing that should make you very particular about your next skin care selection.
Follow this advice and your skin and your overall health will benefit: Never put anything on your skin that you wouldn’t put in your mouth. What I mean is not that its okay to eat your skin care products. But the ingredients should be the same as those you would feel safe eating otherwise. They should be truly natural and safe. Here’s the Secret.
Functional keratin is an ingredient that is safe and very effective. It works a lot like the keratin that is in your body. Functional keratin is known by a patented name of Cynergy TK. It comes from a natural source: the wool of New Zealand sheep.
Liquid Skin
Be careful about other companies and their claim to have keratin in their skin care line. Often the keratin that other companies use is a synthetic protein. The skin will not accept it because it is not a living protein. Liquid skin, another name for functional keratin, will help reduce fine lines and wrinkles but will promote new skin cells and the tendency to return to its original shape after it has been stretched or compressed.
Most skin care products are exaggerated as to what they really can do. The best facial moisturizers and skin care products are not found in downtown stores. The best skin care is found Online. The reason is very important. Keep reading please.
Online skin care companies have less overhead than the big department stores have. Department stores have 3 things against them. 1. The cost of running a brick and mortar (physical) store. 2. The shipping costs. 3. Large mark ups to cover the cost and building in a profit from sales.
When marketing straight to the consumer, Internet companies can have the lowest prices and still deliver high quality products that really work. Fortunately, I found a company that controls the manufacturing, shipping and quality of its skin care line. It has all natural safe skin care products that I personally have used long enough to be very happy with the appearance I now have. Finding this company wasn’t exactly easy but I did. I’d be happy to share more skin care information with you that this article doesn’t have room for. Thanks for reading this article and I hope to share more skin care information with you soon. -Margaret Bell
