Urgent - super sensitive skin (making your own moisturizer; thanx)?
Here are a couple of links. Have you tried Philosophy products? I know many people who are too sensitive for other products, can use this. They have Hope in a Jar for sensitive skin. I loveee the regular Hope in a Jar. I would also suggest buying it from sephora.com, because you get a lot of free samples!

Under eye cream for super sensitive skin?

Hi there. I have really sensitive skin. Like if I change products, try to get a facial or attempt to exfoliate, I get a red patch with little bumps within 24 hours. I then have to go to the doctor to get a ointment to make it go away or it's there for a year. It's nuts. Regardless, I found Dr. Hauschka's line which is all natural blah blah and it's working well. However, after 5 years of using the under eye balm, I suddenly am having a reaction. Don't know if they changed the formula or what but it's just not cutting it anymore. So now I'm looking for some suggestions on alternative eye creams for sensitive skin. I always have used it more preventively...I don't have wrinkles to puff up or dark circles fade so no need for anything harsh like retinol which will destroy me! I just like slathering on a thick cream to hopefully ward it off in the future! Thanks in advance!

Under eye cream for super sensitive skin?
You should try Artistry's eye cream. All of their products are safe for people with sensitive skin. Their eye cream is awesome. If for some reason you decide you don't really like it or you would have a reaction they will give you a full refund with no questions asked. You can't buy it in stores but you can get it at http://www.adrennan.qhealthbeauty.com You can read all the info about it and see if it's what you are looking for and if it is you can buy it there as well. I hope this answered your question :)
Reply:Try Olay Definity Illuminating eye treatment or any olay product for under eye treatment. It is good for sensitive skin.


I have sensitive skin would like to tighten pores?

i just cleaned my pores and i have very large open pores and sensitive skin store bought products dont work for me (proactive, clean and clear, any brand toners, ect.) so home (simple if possible) remedies would be best. thanx

I have sensitive skin would like to tighten pores?
honey is known and i think it makes pores smaller.


Warm the honey a little then apply on a damp face. Wait 15-30 min then wash off with warm water then splash with cold to close pores and keep dirt from getting it. Do it as well when you was your skin normally.
Reply:Every two weeks take a fresh lemon or lime and and rub the juice of it in your face, do not rub it around your eyes. let it dry for 5-10 mins, its gonna itch or burn but its ok let it dry and put a moisturizer after 10 minutes, do not wash your face! Fruit acid specially Citrus acid is the best against open pores.
Reply:Try splashing cold water over your face.
Reply:What I really like is clinique's pore reducer. It's really great and hypoallergenic. I just get concerned with these home remedies because it seems like everyone recommends lemon, lime, and honey for every single problem, and they can't possibly correct them all.
Reply:1.use warm water to open pores


2.clean it well/rub it with cotton gently


3.use cold water to close pores


OR


if you just want to make pores tight, you can just dip you face into very icy cold freezing water.


Anyone with sensitive skin or eczema use a salt scrub?

I used to use Bath %26amp; Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Salt Scrub, and it was so nice. But I think I did experience some irritation later because I now know that I have mild ezcema. It's so mild that I don't even notice anything UNTIL I get tempted to use something with fragrance or harsher chemicals, and then some dry patches appear.





So, if anyone here has found a body scrub that seems to work well for you despite having sensitive skin, could you let me know so can test it out?





Thanks : )

Anyone with sensitive skin or eczema use a salt scrub?
I love the Pomegranate Sugar Scrub by Freeman Body. You can get it at Walmart or Ulta for about $3.50. It's a little more gentle than salt scrub, and doesn't sting if you have any scratches or cuts. It's also a decent moisturizer, so I can usually skip heavy lotion if I use this. I have pretty sensitive skin, and my skin gets irritated with every salt scrub I've tried.
Reply:I break out with eczema every now and then. But not from using skin care. I take flax seed oil(nasty tasting) to get rid of it, and it works
Reply:Hi I know where you are coming from. I have found sea salt bought at the super market and olive oil mixed together are great and very cheap if there is a fragrance you are not allergic to you can add that too.Try it on your feet first and then the more sensitive areas.


Good luck!

What primer is good for sensitive skin?

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer is it good for sensitive skin. I use Bare Essential and juice beauty products only because of my skin being so sensitive.


THANKS IN ADVANCE

What primer is good for sensitive skin?
bare vitamins.
Reply:bare escentuals makes a primer
Reply:Bare Vitamins is not a makeup primer. MAC makes a good makeup primer, and so does Laura Mercier. For a cheaper one go to shoppers drug mart and there is a pretty good one by Lise Watier. I have pretty sensitive skin and I found all of these to be very good.
Reply:my mom has been using perfekt (from sephora) and she says its wonderful, she has sensitive skin too. Its kind of a tinted primer, and you can even skip foundation with it. The price is somewhat high, but she says its totally worth it.


Major skin problem...please help!..way too sensitive?

Please help…I have very very sensitive skin, whenever I shave…I end up with ingrown hair, bumps, pimples and a whole lot of unwanted redness on my face…I have tried many things...I have spent alot of money and time..…nothing has worked so far…These flaws usually end up as scars… so in addition to the above mentioned problems I have scars too….Does anyone know anything that will clear up my skin…nothing too strong please… it usually ends up causing more problems… Thanks

Major skin problem...please help!..way too sensitive?
My husband shave his face after he gets shower, because after a shower skin becomes warm and hair soft. So shave after a shower, when you are done, wait a while and use a shaving splash (if you using it). Try, it will work.
Reply:You have razor bumps. The Army orders the following to soldiers with that problem: You need to stop shaving, give the bumps a chance to heal, then start over, shaving every day so that the hair does not grow long enough to curl and become ingrown, which causes the bumps. That means a beard for a while. If that is a problem with school or work dress code, you can probably get a doctor to write an excuse ordering that you let it grow to heal the problem.
Reply:Laser hair removal.
Reply:sounds like pseudofolliculitis barbae.


any skin color can get it. the hair grows on you face at angle greater than 90 degrees in relation to the skin's surface. when you shave, the hair cuts at an angle and leaves a microscopic point that the hair grows towards, driving that point back itno the skin and creating anything from irritation to infection. multiply this by the number of affected pores on your face and you know what you're dealing with. the best treatment is not shaving. a dermatologist can often give you a waiver for work.





another solution is shaving powder, but i cant


recommend it especially with sensitive skin





a man goes to his family doctor


and the doctor says





"hi jim, how can i help you today?"





jim replies:





"doc, when i wave my arm around like this, i


get a sharp shooting pain. what do you think i should do?"





to which the doctor replies:





"stop waving your arm around like that!


you can pay nancy on your way out"





good luck,

Reply:Try Clinque Cosmetics line for men and women
Reply:Well since I dont have any pimples or anything.Just clean ure face use lotion, if u could use baby lotion it's soft and I think it will help.
Reply:there is a cream available (it is italian but lots of barber shops import it) called Porasso and it will soften the bristles before you shave - afterwards moisturize! I have sensitive skin and did not moisturize for fear of it making me breakout more - now that I moisturize I don't have near the amount of irritation and breakouts that I had before.





Good luck
