Sensitive skin

Gentle facial care for sensitive skin – minimalist, soothing, effective.

Most of our natural cosmetic products have been specially developed for sensitive, irritated skin. They are completely free of alcohol, fragrances, emulsifiers, and conventional preservatives – for a strengthened skin barrier and a noticeably balanced skin feeling.
The goal: relief of irritation, protection and targeted development of the skin’s natural protective function.

Why sensitive skin needs special care

Sensitive skin reacts easily with redness, tightness, or itching – triggered by stress, environmental pollution, improper skincare products, or genetic predisposition. Our low-irritation skincare products offer targeted support:

• No irritating ingredients
• With skin-soothing plant extracts
• Developed for maximum compatibility

Typical characteristics of sensitive skin

• Tendency to irritation, dryness and feelings of tension
• Hypersensitivity to UV radiation, cold, heat or screen light
• Weakened skin barrier with increased permeability to irritants

Common causes of sensitive skin

• Unsuitable care products: e.g. surfactants, alcohol or synthetic fragrances
• Genetic predisposition: Sensitive skin by nature
• Stress and environmental pollution: Promote inflammation and reactions
• Allergies & intolerances: e.g. to ingredients or food
• Hormonal changes: For example, during puberty, pregnancy or menopause
• External influences: UV radiation, blue light, fine dust or air conditioning

Tips for changing your skincare routine

• Start with a new product and wait 4–7 days before adding another
• Avoid peelings and strong active ingredients in the initial phase
• For feelings of tension: Apply 2-3 drops of a facial oil over the care cream
• Active ingredients such as vitamin C or niacinamide are only slowly integrated
• Skincare routine – less is more: rely on minimalist, hypoallergenic formulations
• Avoid fragrances, alcohol and emulsifiers – even in decorative cosmetics
• Cleanse your skin thoroughly and gently in the evening, e.g., with a gentle oil cleanser

Frequently Asked Questions

What is sensitive skin?
Skin that reacts hypersensitively to external stimuli—recognizable by redness, tightness, or burning. The cause is usually a disrupted skin barrier.

Which care products are suitable?
Products without alcohol, emulsifiers, fragrances, or preservatives. Soothing, minimalist formulations with ingredients like squalane, panthenol, or aloe vera are ideal.

Why avoid emulsifiers?
They can damage the skin's protective barrier, especially when in contact with water. Emulsifier-free skincare protects the skin and maintains its natural moisture balance.

How can the transition be achieved?
Slowly, step by step. Start with one product, observe the reaction, and only add the next after a few days.

What helps with acute irritations?
Soothing ingredients such as aloe vera, shea butter or panthenol quickly bring the skin back into balance.
