Sensitive skin produces an excessive reaction to external factors that usually don’t cause irritation. The symptoms include itching, burning, redness, dry skin, and scaling. People with sensitive skin need to be extra careful when choosing products for their skincare routine.
This article lists gentle and nourishing skincare products for sensitive skin, as recommended by the Vibrant Skin Bar team.
6 Products for Sensitive Skin
Experts recommend using cosmetic products in a particular order in the morning and evening to maximize the impact of active skincare ingredients.
A basic daytime skincare routine includes a cleanser, serum, moisturizer, and sunscreen. The products to use at nighttime are a cleanser, serum, and moisturizer. Optional daily or weekly products include a toner, exfoliator, facial oil, and facial mask.
Note: This ultimate skincare guide provides detailed information on when and how to use cosmetic products.
1. ALASTIN Ultra Calm Cleansing Cream
The cleanser is suitable for sensitive skin because it uses only soothing, toxin-free ingredients that don’t disturb the skin’s natural protective barrier. Linoleic acid removes impurities on the skin’s surface, silver mushroom provides and encourages hydration, while oat protein extract soothes easily irritated skin.
Use it as the first step in your skincare routine in the morning and evening. Wet the skin with warm water, take one pump of the product, gently massage it onto the skin and then rinse thoroughly.
2. Rescue Epidermal Repair Serum
Rescue Epidermal Repair Serum is a potent serum infused with the Trioxolane, morin, Arctalis, and five-flavor berry. Together, these ingredients help repair oxidative damage, reduce aging signs, and maintain adequate moisture levels while calming potential redness and irritation.
Use it on clean skin in the morning and evening.
3. Replenish Hydrating Cream Moisturizer
Replenish Hydrating Cream combines active ingredients to provide comprehensive skin care. Vitamin E, vitamin C, and green tea leaf extract are powerful antioxidants that defend against environmental pollutants and free radicals, while sodium hyaluronate keeps the skin hydrated and supple. The product also includes bisabolol, a chamomile-derived agent that helps soothe inflamed and irritated skin.
4. Elta MD UV Clear Sunscreen
People with sensitive skin are prone to UV damage and should protect their skin with adequate sunscreen. Elta MD UV Clear Sunscreen’s non-irritating formulation is suitable for all skin types. It is specially designed to help manage acne, discoloration, rosacea, and other symptoms of sensitive skin.
Niacinamide reduces inflammation, hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin, and zinc oxide protects against UVA and UVB rays.

Regular weekly use reduces the appearance of fine lines and improves skin tone and texture.
