Face Moisturisers for Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin can react more easily to certain ingredients, products or changes in your environment. You may notice that your skin feels uncomfortable, tight or easily irritated, making a simple and gentle skincare routine particularly important.

At Evergreen, you'll find face moisturisers for sensitive skin from trusted skincare brands, including lightweight lotions, hydrating moisturisers and richer creams.

How to Choose a Moisturiser for Sensitive Skin

When choosing a facial moisturiser for sensitive skin, simpler can often be a good place to start.

Look for products specifically formulated with sensitive skin in mind and consider the complete ingredients list rather than relying on one particular ingredient or claim.

Texture is also important. Some people prefer a lightweight everyday moisturiser, while dry and sensitive skin may feel more comfortable with a richer cream.

If you're trying a new product, introducing it gradually can help you see how your skin responds.

What Ingredients Should You Look for?

Different sensitive-skin moisturisers use different combinations of hydrating, nourishing and soothing skincare ingredients.

Glycerin

Glycerin is a humectant commonly used in moisturisers to help attract and retain moisture.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is another widely used humectant and can be found in everything from lightweight hydrating lotions to richer face creams.

Ceramides

Ceramides are lipids naturally found within the skin and are commonly included in moisturisers designed to support the skin barrier.

Aloe Vera

Aloe vera is frequently used in skincare products designed to provide hydration and a soothing feel.

Rather than choosing a product because it contains one particular ingredient, consider the complete formulation and how well it suits your skin.

Moisturiser for Dry and Sensitive Skin

Dryness and sensitivity frequently overlap, which is reflected in the way people search for moisturisers.

If your skin feels both dry and sensitive, you may prefer a richer moisturiser that combines gentle hydration with more nourishing ingredients.

If dryness is your main concern, you can also explore our Moisturisers for Dry Skin collection.

Should Sensitive Skin Choose Fragrance-Free Skincare?

Some people with sensitive skin prefer fragrance-free products, particularly if they already know that fragranced skincare doesn't suit them.

However, “fragrance-free” isn't automatically the same as “suitable for sensitive skin”, so it's still worth checking the complete product information and choosing a formula appropriate for your skin.

Light or Rich Moisturiser for Sensitive Skin?

Sensitive skin doesn't automatically require a heavy moisturiser. A lightweight lotion or cream may provide enough hydration for normal, combination or oilier sensitive skin.

If your skin is also dry, a richer face cream may feel more comfortable, particularly during colder weather.

Choose according to how your skin feels rather than assuming one texture is best for all sensitive skin.

Sensitive and Combination Skin

It is also possible to have combination skin that is sensitive. If some areas of your face tend to become oily while others feel normal or dry, a lightweight hydrating moisturiser may be preferable to a very rich cream.

Explore our Moisturisers for Combination Skin if combination skin is your main concern.

Building a Simple Sensitive-Skin Routine

A complicated skincare routine isn't essential. Start with a gentle Face Cleanser, followed by any serum you know suits your skin, then apply your moisturiser. During the day, finish with an appropriate Facial SPF.

When adding new skincare, introducing one product at a time can make it easier to understand how your skin responds.
