😌How to Soothe Sensitive Skin After an Allergic Reaction (Without Making Things Worse)

🌿 You Reacted to Something Again. Now What?

If you’ve ever had a bad reaction to a “clean” or “natural” skincare product, you’re not alone. Many products—despite being marketed as safe—contain ingredients like fragrance, essential oils, or harsh preservatives that can trigger redness, stinging, or breakouts.

At Dermagrace, we understand what it’s like to react to everything. Our formulas were born out of necessity and are made to protect and support even the most sensitive skin.

✅ Step 1: Stop All Actives & Irritants

Immediately eliminate any products with:

  • Acids (AHAs, BHAs)

  • Retinols or exfoliating enzymes

  • Essential oils or botanical extracts

  • Fragrance or hidden irritants like phenoxyethanol (found in 90% of products!)

Instead, focus on calming and restoring the skin barrier.

🛋️ Step 2: Cleanse with Extreme Care

Most cleansers are too aggressive for reactive skin. Our Delicate Cleanser was specifically created for this moment. Made with coco-glucoside — a non-irritating surfactant — it gently lifts impurities without stripping or disrupting your skin's natural oils.

Only cleanse once daily while healing.

💧 Step 3: Hydrate and Rebuild

Your skin needs moisture, but not from heavy or oily creams. Our Delicate Moisturizer uses:

  • Fractionated Coconut Oil: A light emollient that won’t clog pores

  • Squalane: Mimics skin's natural lipids

  • Propanediol: A naturally-derived microbial blocking system ideal for ultra-sensitive skin

These ingredients soothe, hydrate, and support barrier repair without overwhelming your skin.

⌛ Step 4: Keep It Ultra Simple

Don’t reintroduce masks, scrubs, or new products yet. Give your skin space to breathe and recover. Simplicity is key to healing and long-term health.

Let your skin reset for at least 5–7 days before experimenting again.

✨ Final Thoughts

Your skin deserves to be supported, not challenged. At Dermagrace, our skincare was created for those who have been failed by "clean" products that still irritate. We keep our ingredients minimal, our formulas pH-balanced, and our promise clear: safety first, always.
