Application Tips for Sensitive Skin

Patch Testing:
Always perform a patch test before using any new product. Apply a small amount to the inside of your wrist or behind your ear. Wait 24-48 hours to check for any adverse reactions.

Gentle Application:
Use gentle, upward motions when applying face products. Avoid pulling or tugging on the skin, especially around the delicate eye area.

Layering Products:
Apply products from thinnest to thickest consistency. Allow each product to absorb fully before applying the next.

Temperature Matters:
Use lukewarm water for cleansing. Hot water can strip natural oils and irritate sensitive skin.

Storage & Shelf Life

Storage:
Store products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing in the bathroom if possible, as humidity can affect product integrity.

Shelf Life:
Unopened products: 2-3 years from manufacture date
Opened products: 6-12 months (check individual product packaging for specific guidance)

Signs to Replace:
• Change in color, texture, or smell
• Separation of ingredients
• Irritation that wasn't present initially
