What I Use When My Sensitive Skin Starts Acting Up (Skin Barrier Repair in short 🙂)

Still searching for the perfect routine (if that’s even possible) and sometimes while trying a new product I get terrible irritation, redness, and itchiness. When this happens, I reach out to these calming products to get my skin back to my normal.

Onion Newpair Clear Pad

Let’s pretend our skin is clean. Instead of a toner I’m going to use these super calming pads. Sometimes I leave them on for 10-15 minutes for a “sheet mask” moment.

I received this product for free from Picky and Isntree in exchange for my honest review. Everything was good about this product! Texture: Feels as soft as cotton candy! Drenched in essence, but it won’t drip once you take it out, the cotton pad will just feel heavy. It smells very lightly of something I cannot identify, but it’s not unpleasant. And it does not smell like onion. At all. My experience: It almost instantly calms my skin and reduces redness 😦 I felt like the first time I used it it was a coincidence that my skin became less inflamed, so I used it 4 more times and fair enough all 4 times my skin felt much better after. I go over my entire face and then leave the cotton pad on the most problematic spots (ahem, my cheeks or chin) and let it heal my skin. It helped me with acne too. I had a huge zit on my chin and I used this onion pad at night, the next morning the zit reduced in size and became less itchy! I’m impressed 😮 I believe this product is very good for oily acne prone sensitive skin, that’s why it helped me so much. But if you just want something calming, then I’d recommend it too.

I received this product for free from Picky and efilow in exchange for my honest review. Everything was good about this ampoule! Let me start with the ingredients. They’re amazing and thoughtfully chosen. Some of them I never heard of so I googled a little; here are several key ingredients: 🌱Artichoke Leaf Extrac 💧Niacinamide 🌱Bifida Ferment Lysate 💧Saccharomyces/Rice Ferment Filtrate 🌱Centella Asiatica Extract 💧Fig Fruit Extract 🌱Hyaluronic Acid Texture: non-sticky texture and light consistency. I would describe it as thick water or liquid silk. It absorbs fast enough and feels smooth amd refreshing. I want to say it makes my skin feel clean. Scent: no scent. I tried to catch it, but I don’t think it smells like anything. Packaging: it was in a carton box. The ampoule itself is in a glass bottle. I love glass packaging. It instantly makes the product ✨luxurious✨ 😄 My experience: I had inflamed skin around my nose (because guess who looked at the magnifying mirror again and went crazy with those blackheads 🤪) so it did feel a bit burning when I applied the ampoule there, but it went away quickly and the skin healed within two days. It doesn’t burn anymore when I put the ampoule around my nose. The ampoule visibly reduces redness, itchiness and irritation. I use it twice a day, morning and night, and It just makes my skin better. I can’t stop being impressed with it to be honest. Every morning I wake up and I feel and see the good difference. My skin’s condition definitely improved from using this ampoule. I’m very happy about it! 🥰 My rating: 10/5 🌟 Song on the video: Br1ghter by Tape Machines

Madagascar Centella Probio-Cica Intensive Ampoule

If you’re not into artichokes and want something just a tiny bit heavier, I’d recommend this ampoule.

I received this product for free from Picky and SKIN1004 in exchange for my honest review. Texture and smell: 🧡 it’s liquid-y, but not water-type liquid, but… something-else-type of liquid 😌 It’s like glue texture, but minus the stickiness 🧡 absorbs quickly, non sticky; I do feel it on the skin when it’s applied, but it doesn’t bother me and this feeling goes away in minutes 🧡 has no smell 🥲 The good: Very happy with this ampoule to be honest. It doesn’t break me out, doesn’t cause redness, (reduces redness!), and calms my skin. It might be that I use the entire Probio-Cica line that improves my skin, but because this ampoule is part of it, I’m attributing my skin’s improvement to this ampoule as well. I’m getting unusual inflammation on my left side of the chin that I really never had before, and seems like these products are helping. Will try my best to update/edit this review as more time passes. Feels like I need more time to see how good this actually is.

Safe Me. Relief Intensive CP Cream

Some might find it a bit heavy, but, surprisingly, my oily skin loved it. It would calm my irritated skin and help keep it moisturized.

I received this product for free from Picky and Make P:rem in exchange for my honest review. My rating: 5/5🌟 The fact that this cream did not break me out, but calmed my irritated skin was the good part about this product! The best part. My skin had some active acne and redness because of the cream I used before. It was a new product that didn’t work for me at all. So I was actually scared to use yet another product on my face when this cream arrived. I remember opening this tube in the evening and thinking of doing a patch test, but then I didn’t have patience waiting 24 hours before using it again so I put a thin layer of cream on my entire face. Don’t do that, do the patch test first! Anyways… can you imagine my surprise when I woke up with a calm skin with no new acne? I think it was the moment I never forget because I was so amazed. I used it in the morning, and then at night, and then the next morning… and every single day. I used it yesterday too. This cream does not irritate my skin, does not cause any redness or itchiness. Texture is very soft, but feels quite heavy. Doesn’t absorb too quick, yet it’s not sticky. Smells like some chemical, but it doesn’t bother me when on the face. The packaging is nice, the tube is not hard so it’s easy to squeeze. I would purchase this cream so I can always have something that would calm my skin and also moisturize it. I give 5 stars because it is one of the only creams that worked for me. Gentle and soothing. Song on the video: Kicktracks - Midnight Lovers
