When you have sensitive skin, picking a moisturizer can feel overwhelming. With so many options on the shelf, it’s hard to know what will truly help—and what might make irritation worse. Choosing wisely makes all the difference in keeping skin hydrated, soothed, and protected.



Look for Hydrating, Barrier-Supporting Ingredients

Moisturizers with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, or glycerin help lock in hydration and strengthen your skin barrier. These ingredients are especially important if your skin is prone to dryness or irritation.

Avoid Fragrances and Harsh Preservatives

Added scents and certain preservatives can trigger flare-ups in sensitive or compromised skin. Always read the label and stick to fragrance-free, hypoallergenic formulas.

Choose the Right Texture

For very dry or compromised skin, a rich cream provides deeper hydration and protection. If your skin is oily or combination, a lighter lotion or gel can help keep it balanced without clogging pores.

Patch Test New Products

Even with gentle products, sensitive skin can react unexpectedly. Always test a new moisturizer on a small area before applying it to your face or treatment area.
