Why Sensitive Skin Needs Special Care
Sensitive skin reacts quickly. Weather, stress, new products — they can all cause redness, dryness, or irritation.
Many store-bought soaps:
-
Strip the skin with sulfates
-
Use synthetic fragrance that can cause itching
-
Lack the nutrients skin needs to heal and stay balanced
That’s why choosing a soap made for sensitive skin is so important.
