Best skin health: Selecting skincare products for sensitive skin

If you have sensitive skin, you should use skincare products that are designed for sensitive skin. What does it mean to be designed for sensitive skin?
Natural:
Your skincare products should be base on natural and naturally extracted ingredients not man made chemicals. The ceramides should be bio-ceramides, not man made ceramides.

Moisturizing:
Because of the link between dry skin and skin sensitivity, your skincare products should all contain a moisturizer, especially the cleansers. Avoid skincare products that include alcohol because it undemines the moisturizing agents, resulting it dry irritated skin.

No Irritants:
Your skincare products shouldn't include artificially coloring, perfume, surfactants or parabens which can irritate your skin.

Gently Application:
No matter how friendly a skincare product is to your skin, if the application requres a great deal of rubbing, it is going to irritate your skin.
