Collection: Skin Care For Sensitive Skin

Skin care for sensitive skin has been specially formulated using high-quality ingredients that are gentle and soothing on the skin and free from irritants such as parabens, sulfates, and fragrances. Unlike regular skin care products, sensitive skin products often undergo additional testing for dermatologist approval and hypoallergenic properties. At Credo Beauty, our sensitive skin products also adhere to our industry-leading standards and vetting process, with an extensive list of ingredients banned - including those that have been linked to potential allergies and irritation.

While sensitivities to ingredients can vary, there are a few common ingredients to avoid in skin care products if you have sensitive skin, such as fragrances, alcohol, certain preservatives, parabens, sulfates, and phthalates, among others. We at Credo Beauty ban over 2,700 potentially harmful ingredients including irritants and allergy-causing ingredients, and have a wide range of products suitable for the most sensitive of skins. Plus, as we constantly push for greater ingredient transparency, you can have the confidence of knowing exactly what you’re putting on your skin.

It’s often assumed that natural skin care for sensitive skin is better because they contain naturally derived ingredients and fewer irritants, but this is not always the case, as some natural skin care products contain natural ingredients that also cause irritation or allergic reactions. That’s why we’ve created our industry-leading vetting in The Credo Clean Standard™, ensuring all of our products contain ingredients that are safer and gentler on the skin.

When you’re testing new sensitive skin products, you should always carry out a patch test first by applying a small pea-sized amount of product on your inner forearm on clean, unbroken skin. Allow the product to dry and leave it on your skin for 24 hours. After 24 hours have passed, you can check the area for any signs of irritation such as redness, and if you’ve experienced any itching, burning, or bumps, you should avoid using the product. If no irritation has occurred, you’ll likely be able to use it safely on your face, but you should always ensure you introduce new products slowly and one at a time, as this helps isolate any potential irritants and what’s causing them. With our push for greater transparency in the industry, we’re aiming to make this easier for consumers to do.

At Credo Beauty, we stock the very best clean skin care for sensitive skin. As we ban ingredients on our Dirty List, you’ll know that you’re getting the most gentle yet effective skin care possible for your sensitive skin. There is a range of reputable brands for you to choose from, whether you’re searching for vegan skin care for sensitive skin or a skin care routine that helps combat irritated skin. Some brands we recommend looking at when searching for skin care for sensitive skin are Ilia Beauty, Tata Harper, Marie Veronique, and Avéne, among others. Not all of the products these brands offer are suitable for sensitive skin, but they have a wide range of products that are often recommended by dermatologists and they use the highest-quality, clean ingredients.
