Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin

RE: Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin Post By Jennifer (Guest Post) (08/02/2008) You must really read the label of all your skin care products, any type of dyes, fragrances, chemicals etc can cause sensitive skin to burn and sting. I have testimonies of many people with extremely sensitive skin that have had success with products thru a very reputable company I am now working with. The company has been around since 1980. The products are formulated in Switzerland which has a higher standard than the US. They are botanical with NO chemicals, fragrances or dyes. No mineral oils or animal by-products. If you are interested in knowing more, please contact me by email. I don't wish to give out too much info on this site, but if you or anyone else reading wants to know more, I will be glad to send you free samples, etc. Sincerely, Jennifer Jennifer (at) rogersdirect (dot) com Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin Post By vivi76 (Guest Post) (02/01/2008) I use Aveeno baby Daily moisture lotion on my face and neck and it keeps my skin feeling soft the whole day as well as keeping my skin blemish and redness free. It's Fragance free and has Natural Colloidal Oatmeal. It absorbs quickly so you don't feel it, only the smoothness throughout the day. Hypoallergenic and seriously if it's good enough for babies skin (pediatrician recommended) then it's good for adult skin. I've been using it for over 2 years and my skin has stayed smooth and blemish free and I used to have combination and pimpled skin.

My sensitive skin has gotten to the point that i cant wear my hair down because it irritates my ears and turns them bright red and inflamed. any advice?

So far I've used the face wash which works well. Be careful which sunscreen you use, some can make your skin photosensitive. Neutregena sunscreen for sensitive skin is good. Also, just because a product claims to be hypoallergenic doesn't mean you won't be allergic to it. It only means that some testing was done and certain ingredients known to be irritating have been omitted. I can't use anything Dove makes, baking soda or petroleum jelly, and they are all recommended for sensitive skin. You just have to go with what works for you.

Most likely you guys are sensitive to the ingredients in most soaps. Carley's caters to those with allergies to store bought products as well as those with acne (for that - get the treatment). This stuff is unlike anything else you will have tried... You can only purchase on the internet or ebay. Its fresh (no more than a couple months old) and its natural. Give it a try! You'll notice a difference right away.. http://www.no-acne.com/main.htm Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin Post By SusannL (Guest Post) (05/02/2006) A lot of this just depends on the individual. I've never been able to use Dove soaps- I think it's the rose oil. Jergens soap, and clear, perfume-free soaps like Neutragena work for me. Noxema is also good. I like the Almay products, including the milk cleanser. If you have sensitive skin be careful which sunscreen you use. My face swelled up when I used Coppertone Faces Only- even though I was hardly in the sun. I've used Neutragena Sensitive Skin sunscreen every day for the past four years and haven't had any problem with it.

Maybe you are allergic to chlorine and showeriing in chlorinated water maybe leaving your skin in a constantly agitated state. :) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin Post By Amie (Guest Post) (04/13/2006) Try getting a shower water filter.

I can only wear silver/gold and stainless steel daily. When my skin gets really irritated, I find that calendula gel (you can find it in the health food store) is very cooling - also applications of cold black tea (very good around the eyes).

Since you seem to have EXTREMELY sensitive skin I would suggest you see your doctor. He may refer you to a dermatologist. Good luck.

I can't even wear expensive jewely, like gold or silver. I also gave up on wearing earrings because they make my ears scab up. I also use aloe vera. I either buy the gel, or use it right off the plant (which is best for me). I second Pat5617, who says avoid fragrances. Good luck... Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin Post By Carol (Guest Post) (03/17/2006) I also have this kind of skin. I am allergic to scratches... (break out in hives)... like from a necklace rubbing against my skin. Also, my ears have an allergic reaction to metals so I dont wear ear rings... (I've decided scabby ears arent really sexy.. lol) I told the dermatologist about the reaction to cosmetics on my face... He told me to look at the ingredients in each and find what ingredient they have in common. I'm allergic to methylparaben and anything with the word "urea" in it. The dermatologist tells me they are preservatibes. Soooo I guess I am advising you to go the simple route. Avoid that which makes your skin get these red bumps rather than to try to remedy them. You'll be pleasantly rewarded with discovering the innate inner glow that you posess. Keep it simple. By the way, Dove bar soap is the only product I can use on my skin (not the liquid). Lotions make my hands and legs worse so I try to avoid them. Use Vaseline on your hands at night if they are dry... If this doesnt work for you, see a dermatologist. You're worth it and owe it to yourself. Treat yourself like a princess. After all you are one!

It is either blue or green. The brand that seems to work the best for me is "good earth", from Wal-Mart Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dealing With Extremely Sensitive Skin Post by Pat5617 (8) | (03/16/2006) Profile | Contact May I suggest using fragrance free cosmetics. Dove has a really good fragrance free soap and body wash. You may be allergic to fragrances. Please give this a try if you haven't already. Good Luck! Report Spam or Abuse
