Why We Love Sensitive Skincare

Here at Nakin we believe in helping our skin to look great naturally. One of the main skin concerns that we hear about from customers is that they have switched to our sensitive skin care products as other face ranges cause irritation, redness, or reactions for their skin. At Nakin we love sensitive skincare and pride ourselves on making the best kind anti-ageing skincare. We believe that all skincare has to be kind to skin, whether you have sensitive skin or not. This is because when we put harsh ingredients on our delicate complexions they can be alien to our skin and so it has to work to incorporate the substance the best way possible. Instead, natural ingredients are so much kinder and bio-available to our skin, so the plant ingredients can better get to work improving our skin and helping it to thrive.

Sensitive skincare does not really have a universally accepted meaning, however, if you do suffer from sensitivity then it will play a part in your everyday life. Sensitive skin is when our skin reacts negatively to products that are applied to it. So, in turn sensitive skin care includes products that are made to be used by people with sensitive skin, without causing reactions. It is all about nourishing and strengthening the skin barrier, so that it is happy and healthy. At Nakin our full product range of face care is suitable for all skin types, as sensitive face products will also help every skin type to function well. They are just made with sensitive skin in mind, and this is why they are packed with amazing plant boosting ingredients like flower actives, marine extracts, oils and butters.

Our skin is a special organ and what we show to the world, so we should treat it well and be kind to it. There has been a trend in the last few years of using really strong anti-ageing ingredients on our faces and while they might have some benefits in terms of looking good, they are also far away from our natural biology and can completely throw skin out of sync. The sorts of ingredients that we are talking about are ones like retinol and hydroxy acids like glycolic acid, plus the commonly used artificial fragrances. We all want lovely skin but at Nakin we love kind natural skincare that uses harmonising and strengthening plant ingredients to get comparable results to strong chemical anti-agers. Our kind formulas mean that our full range is suitable for sensitive skin. Even our bestselling anti-wrinkle cream and anti-wrinkle serum are kind to skin and use botanicals to smooth lines. Meaning that even sensitive skin can look fresh and healthy without risking irritation and reactions.

Sensitive face issues can come around from all sorts of problems and our skin sensitivity tends to increase as we age. Sensitive skincare that is kind to skin will nurture skin back to health and will make balanced skin thrive.

Everyone’s skin is so unique, and it is important to remember that some skin issues can be brought on by an allergy, so we must always read cosmetic product labels scrupulously to ensure the ingredients are right for us. We also advise to always do a patch test when trying out new products. For most of us we recommend using sensitive skincare products, regardless of if you have sensitive skin or not. This is because we do not believe in using strong chemicals on our precious skin at any time, unless recommended by a health professional. At Nakin we love sensitive skincare products, and we believe that they offer skin the chance to look great in both the short and long term.

Sensitive skin products are formulated with particular care to ensure they are gentle and non-irritating. They typically contain fewer allergens and harsh chemicals, curating ingredients that are known to soothe rather than aggravate the skin. Common additives such as synthetic fragrances, glycolic acid, and certain preservatives are often avoided to prevent triggering sensitivity. Instead, these products may include calming agents like aloe vera, plant oils, and hyaluronic acid, which help to maintain skin hydration and reduce inflammation. By choosing sensitive skin products, we can manage skin issues more effectively and enjoy a healthier, more comfortable complexion.

Sensitive skin products are not just for those with diagnosed skin conditions, but also for people who want to avoid potential irritants and maintain healthy skin. Even if you do not have sensitive skin, incorporating these types of products into your skincare routine can provide numerous benefits.

One big advantage of using sensitive skin products is that they often contain natural ingredients instead of synthetic ones. These natural ingredients tend to be gentler on the skin and less likely to cause adverse reactions. Additionally, many sensitive skin products are not filled with synthetic perfumes, making them more suitable for individuals with allergies or sensitivity to fragrances.

At Nakin we love sensitive skin products like ours, which often have a more gentle and nourishing formulas compared to traditional skincare products. This is because they are designed to be so kind to skin, and as a result, these products may be more hydrating, soothing, and protective for the skin.
