Sensitive skin is characterised by a heightened response to external and internal triggers. This may present as redness, dryness, irritation, stinging or discomfort. Sensitivity is usually linked to a compromised skin barrier, which allows irritants to penetrate more easily and moisture to escape. This weakened defence system reduces the skin’s ability to protect and regulate itself effectively.

FAQs
Why should I choose products formulated for sensitive skin?
Products formulated for sensitive skin are created with a deliberate focus on tolerance, ensuring the skin is supported rather than challenged with every application. They prioritise barrier support and ingredient compatibility, reducing potential irritation or inflammation. Consistent use can help stabilise reactivity and promote smoother, brighter and calmer-looking skin.
How do I start a sensitive skin routine without overwhelming my skin?
Start with a simplified routine consisting of a gentle cleanser, a hydrating serum and a barrier-supporting moisturiser. Introduce additional products gradually, allowing your skin time to adjust and respond.
What’s special about Pelactiv’s sensitive skin products?
Pelactiv skincare products for sensitive skin are made by leading Australian cosmetic chemists. Each product includes premium active ingredients scientifically proven to deliver visible, lasting results while respecting the needs of delicate complexions.
Can sensitive skin benefit from serums and actives?
Yes, when selected appropriately. Choose hydrating and barrier-supporting serums, such as those containing hyaluronic acid. The key is to avoid overly aggressive or high-strength actives and instead opt for balanced formulations that work harmoniously with the skin. It’s also important to follow recommended usage guidelines and introduce products gradually to ensure the skin can adapt without becoming overwhelmed.
Do I need a different routine for morning and night?
Yes, but only slightly. While the core steps can remain consistent, your routine can be adapted to suit the skin’s needs at different times of day. In the morning, the focus should be on hydration and protection to prepare the skin for environmental exposure. In the evening, the emphasis shifts to gentle cleansing and recovery, allowing the skin to restore and rebalance overnight.
Can sensitive skin still include exfoliants or masks?
Yes, but they should be used with care and intention. Sensitive skin can benefit from gentle exfoliation and hydrating masks when formulated appropriately and used in moderation.
How soon will I see results?
Initial improvements, such as increased hydration and reduced discomfort, may be noticed relatively quickly. However, more meaningful changes like improved resilience and reduced redness develop gradually with consistent use. Sensitive skin responds best to a steady, long-term approach rather than quick fixes.
