Having an utterly sensitive skin can be a lifetime hassle. We understand the struggle—you can’t try on hype skincare products whenever you want it.


If you’re lucky enough, you may already find the skincare line that belongs to you. But for those who just started or looking to change their beauty routines, you need precise reference before worsening your skin condition.

First of all, you need most of hydrating agent like hyaluronic acid to maintain the moisture in your imbalanced skin. You will also need repairing and protecting agent such as snail secretion to compensate with your likely thin skin. Lastly, the products you use need to have the least chemical ingredients possible to prevent any abnormal reaction—this is non-negotiable.

Here we have the sensitive skin-certified skincare lines to leave out all the questions you have. We have all the best in list, from cleansing, hydrating, sun-protecting, to repairing your sensitive skin.  We also made sure these ticked all the boxes of Sensitive Skin DIY above!
