Here some common causes of irritation when using skin care products

Combining

Using improper products together may cause irritation or breakouts,

for example, Vitamin A and Vitamin C.

Diet

Too much sugar, gluten, and dairy may cause breakouts or flare-ups within the skin.

Too Many Products

Incorporating too many new products in a routine should not be encouraged, instead, try utilizing one new product each month to stay on top of any irritation. Give your skin’s cell turnover a proper full cycle to adapt.

Allergies

Unknown allergy within ingredients. Always patch test products before use and check each INCI List on each individual product page on our site or found listed on all bottles/jars. If burning or itching occurs, stop usage. Slight tingling is normal for some ingredients.

Product Application

When and how formulas are applied make all the difference, such as not rinsing off a cleanser fully or using a Vitamin A during the day. Always pay attention to how you apply your products, and in what particular order.

Are there any ingredients that may cause a reaction to my skin?

Retinol / Retinyl Palmitate ( Vitamin A )

To prevent irritation do not combine this with Salicylic Acid, Vitamin C, or use during the day. People with sensitive skin should take caution when trying out products with Vitamin A.  Avoid usage when pregnant or nursing, and always contact your physician should you have any questions. It is very important to test a small area and leave it for 24 hours before applying on your entire face.

Salicylic Acid

To prevent irritation do not combine with Retinol / Retinyl Palmitate. Avoid usage when pregnant or nursing, and always contact your physician should you have any questions.
