7 products to turn to when your skin has just had enough

Can your skin have too much of a good thing? We asked that question in our December issue, on shelves now, and following on from that page 113 piece, we’ve compiled this extra list. These are the products you can rely on to calm, soothe and ease sensitivity in your skin if you’ve overcomplicated your skincare routine. 

La Roche Posay Toleriane Ultra Overnight, €19.99

Sometimes it can be hard to find a night cream that works to calm and soothe while you sleep, but this one fits the bill.

Académie Derm Acte Dermo Cleanser Intolerant, €24.40

Ideal for very sensitive skin, this cleanser is gentle enough for eye makeup removal, meaning you don’t need a second cleanser.

3 Elequra Pure Balancing Cleanser, €38.94

This cleanser works hard to brighten the complexion, cleanse off all environmental grime and still leaves skin feeling hydrated and not tight or parched.

4 Biologique Recherche Masque Biosensible, €194

The obsession with all things Biologique Recherche continues with this incredible masque. It’ll not only soothe your skin but you’ll see immediate lifting, brightening and tightening results.

5 Avene Xeracalm AD Lipid Replenishing Cream, €21

This repairs the lipid layer of your skin, supporting the protection of the deeper layers.

6 Trilogy Very Gentle Eye Cream, €29.95

All of this Very Gentle range from Trilogy is great, but the eye cream is stand out because it hydrates amazingly and never irritates.

7 Filorga Nutrifiller Nutri-replenishing cream, €66

This cream is such a luxury to use. It feels like you’re physically repairing and protecting your skin when applied, and it’s pumping nutrients back into your skin all the while.
