How to Exfoliate Sensitive Skin

How to Exfoliate Sensitive Skin

It would be hard not to have heard about the benefits of exfoliation for your face and neck, but if you have sensitive skin then you might be wondering how it is possible to incorporate exfoliation into your routine. Well this is one of the reasons that we developed our Exfoliating Radiance Tonic as it is kind to all skin types.

Unfortunately, most exfoliators around are in our opinion too harsh for all skin types, but especially sensitive skin. They either contain the traditional abrasive ingredients, which can damage our skin barrier and even cause micro tears. Or they are the more modern liquid formulations but contain large amounts of strong synthetic ingredients, such as glycolic acid. The result is that they can cause that unwanted tingling sensation and can be irritating to skin. Instead, we have formulated our Exfoliating Radiance Tonic with plant AHAs, so they offer all the excellent exfoliating benefits of AHAs, but without the irritation.

How to Exfoliate Sensitive Skin

Having sensitive skin can be tricky when it comes to skincare. One of the most common challenges is finding an exfoliator that doesn’t irritate your delicate complexion. While exfoliation is beneficial for removing dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover, and achieving a brighter, more radiant appearance, many traditional products can feel too harsh for sensitive skin types.

Thankfully, there’s a gentler way to exfoliate and still get those glowing results you’re after. Enter our Exfoliating Radiance Tonic, the perfect companion for those with sensitive skin. It is just one of our natural anti-ageing face products, which are all designed with sensitive skin in mind.

Why Exfoliating Can Be Hard on Sensitive Skin

The act of exfoliating, especially with physical scrubs or high-strength chemical exfoliants, can sometimes harm rather than help. If you struggle with redness, dryness, or irritation after using traditional exfoliators, it’s because many products strip the skin or are overloaded with too-potent active ingredients. For sensitive skin types, maintaining the skin barrier is vital, and exfoliators that are too abrasive can disrupt that balance.

But it’s not just about skipping exfoliation altogether. Without regularly removing dead skin cells, your complexion can become dull, and products like serums and moisturisers may not absorb as effectively.

A Gentler Approach with Our Exfoliating Radiance Tonic

Sensitive skin doesn’t mean giving up exfoliation—it just means opting for a smarter choice. Our Exfoliating Radiance Tonic is developed specifically with sensitive skin in mind. Formulated with plant-based AHAs, it offers a delicate yet effective exfoliation that works below the surface to remove dead skin cells smoothly, without irritation.

Here’s why it’s a game-changer for sensitive skin:

  • Plant-Derived AHAs: Unlike harsher synthetic acids, these natural alternatives exfoliate gently, promoting smoother, healthier skin without irritation.
  • Hydrating and Balancing Formula: Carefully chosen ingredients ensure your skin feels soft and nourished—not dry or stripped—after use.
  • Brightening Properties: Regular use allows your inner glow to shine through while improving skin texture and clarity.
  • Easy to Use: Simply apply it with a cotton pad after cleansing, no rough scrubbing required.

How to Use Our Exfoliator for Sensitive Skin

Using an exfoliator for sensitive skin is all about balance. Follow these tips to make the most of the Exfoliating Radiance Tonic:

  • Start Slow – Introduce it to your routine 1-2 times per week to start with.
  • Patch Test First – Always test a new product on a small area of skin before using it on your face.
  • Follow With Nourishment – Sensitive skin and all skin types can benefit from a treatment afterwards, to utilise actives after exfoliating, we recommend following with our Revitalising Face Oil to calm and rejuvenate, and then one of our moisturisers.
  • SPF is Essential – Freshly exfoliated skin can become more prone to UV sensitivity, so don’t forget your sunscreen when required.
