Natural, Organic Product Suggestions that help reduce Tightness, Flaking, and Sensitivity caused by increased TEWL—without relying on synthetic irritants.
🌿 1. Barrier-Replenishing Oils
- Squalane (olive- or sugarcane-derived) – lightweight, non-comedogenic, great for repairing the moisture barrier.
- Jojoba oil – mimics skin’s natural sebum; excellent for soothing sensitivity.
- Rosehip seed oil – rich in essential fatty acids that help strengthen the barrier.
🧴 2. Gentle Organic Moisturizers
Look for creams containing:
- Shea butter (deeply nourishing)
- Aloe vera (soothes irritation)
- Calendula (reduces redness and sensitivity)
- Colloidal oatmeal (excellent for dryness and barrier repair)
💧 3. Hydrating Serums (Natural)
- Hyaluronic acid from botanical fermentation
- Glycerin (plant-derived)
- Aloe vera gel
These help draw water into the skin before sealing it in with a moisturizer.
🌸 4. Extra-Soothing Options
- Chamomile extract – anti-inflammatory and great for sensitive skin
- Centella asiatica (Cica) – repairs and calms irritation
- Licorice root extract – helps reduce inflammation
