If your skin gets red, itchy, or just freaks out when you try new products — you might have sensitive skin. Don’t worry! You’re not alone, and I’ve got you covered 💖

Sensitive skin just needs a little more love and the right products. Here’s how to build a routine that’s calming, simple, and actually works without causing drama 🧴✨

🧼 1. Choose a Gentle Cleanser

Skip anything with strong smells or foaming formulas — they can strip your skin and leave it dry and tight.

🧴 Minnie’s Picks:

CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser
Simple Kind to Skin Refreshing Facial Wash
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser

💡 Tip: Wash with lukewarm water — not hot!

💧 2. Moisturise Like Your Life Depends on It

Sensitive skin LOVES moisture. It keeps your skin barrier happy and stops irritation.

🧪 5. Try Barrier-Boosting Ingredients

If you want to add something gentle, try products with:

Niacinamide (for redness + calming)
Ceramides (for moisture + repair)
Centella Asiatica or Aloe Vera (soothing)

🧴 But remember: always patch test first!
