What Ingredients Should You Avoid for Sensitive Skin?
While everyone’s skin and sensitivities are unique, some skincare products for sensitive skin carefully avoid ingredients that are generally considered irritants. Ingredients to consider using in moderation if you have sensitive skin include:
Retinol/Retinoids
we at Dr. Dennis Gross adore the powerful effects of retinol, but frequent use of retinol can cause irritation, particularly for those with sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin and plan to use retinol, start small with a test on your skin.
Parabens
these synthetic ingredients that can irritate the skin, so it is best to avoid them. Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare products are always free of parabens, phthalates, and sulfates.
