How Can I Change Skincare Brands if I have Sensitive Skin?

If you have sensitive skin and are looking to change skincare ranges then we understand how daunting this can be, and it is one of the questions that we often receive at Nakin. It is something that we recommend doing with care and researching the new products fully. Look for verified reviews and check the ingredients that are in each product. No face product can be guaranteed to work for every person, as our skin and natural biology is so unique. However, we can minimise the chances of a reaction by using high quality ranges with ingredients that are well tolerated by our skin. At Nakin we are specialists in sensitive skincare and are very proud to have won Silver in the Natural Health Magazine Best Sensitive Skincare Range Category. If you have sensitive skin and are thinking of switching skincare ranges, then read on to find out more.

How Can I Change Skincare Brands if I have Sensitive Skin?

We recommend that you opt for a range that is more natural than your current one, as this will most likely be kinder to your skin and there will be less chance of a reaction. This is not always the case though, but in our experience natural face products like those in our Nakin range are usually much better tolerated by skin than synthetic ranges. Then once that you have found a good natural skincare range like ours, take your time picking your products. We recommend our Advanced Cleansing Milk as a first step cleanser, followed by our Revitalising Face Oil, Eye Cream Complex and one of our face moisturisers. All of these products and the rest of our range can be found here.

At Nakin all of our products are made with sensitive skin in mind and are much more natural than most skincare ranges that are available, so we feel confident saying that if you switch to Nakin it would be unlikely that you would have a reaction. Having said that we can be allergic to even the most natural ingredients and this does happen to some customers. It is surprising just how many lovely natural ingredients some of us are allergic to including nut oils, glycerin and aloe vera. This is just an example of some of the plant ingredients that can cause allergies, and while they can be extremely healing and calming to sensitive skin, some people are unable to use products that have them in the ingredients.

Whatever new skincare that you are using, we would recommend a patch test to be sure that the products are right for you before using fully. We understand that it is a risk to try a new range and only want happy customers, so at Nakin we have a 30-day money back guarantee in the rare event that there was an issue.

One thing to bear in mind when switching to Nakin is that you will probably notice a difference in the feel and scent of our products compared to most ranges, as we only use a subtle 100% natural fragrance and everything is free of synthetic ingredients such as silicones, PEGs, glycols, mineral oil and petrolatum. These can give a lovely feel to a product, but they are all on our banned list of ingredients. Naturally, our range is also free of harsh anti-agers such as glycolic acid, synthetic vitamin C and retinoids. Good sensitive skincare is as much about the ingredients inside, as the ones that are left out.
