Can I wear makeup if I have sensitive skin?
Yes, but you’ll need to choose products that won’t aggravate your skin. When applying makeup for sensitive skin use a blending sponge or a soft brush, and apply gently without rubbing. Remember to remove all makeup at the end of each day, and finish by applying a soothing moisturiser.
Which foundation is best for sensitive skin?
If dryness is a problem, you should use liquid foundations to hydrate the skin. After moisturising, apply a lightweight liquid foundation for dry, sensitive skin and blend with care.
On the other hand, if your skin is prone to oiliness, the best foundation for sensitive skin is one that will control oil and minimise pores. Our STUDIO FIX TECH CREAM-TO-POWDER FOUNDATION has a lightweight, sweat-resistant formula with a matte finish – plus it lasts for 12 hours.
Primers can actually help to soothe sensitive skin, plus they’ll help with oil control while providing a smooth finish. A great primer for sensitive skin is our PREP + PRIME FIX+ which is a lightweight water mist packed with vitamins and minerals. Plus, the infusion of green tea, chamomile and cucumber will gently calm sensitive skin.
What is the best primer for sensitive skin?
If you want a primer that will control redness and even out your skin tone, our PREP + PRIME SKIN is the perfect option. This lightweight gel lotion is formulated with special-effect silicones to improve the tone and texture of your skin, while making it easier to apply foundation.
