And that I think is probably the hardest thing to do because when people get reactive, even if it's for two, three days, they start compounding things and products trying to fix it
without letting their skin do its thing to calm down and heal.
So step one, if your skin is very sensitive or reactive, is to stop everything.
And this freaks people out.
I'm like, you're not going to melt, okay?
You're going to survive this for like a week or two.
Everything from skincare to makeup.
You're going to wash your face with water.
And if you really need something, if you really need an occlusive of some sort, you can use Vaseline.
But you have to calm the skin before you can correct it.
And then step two is very boring and very slow, but you rebuild your barrier slowly.
So you first incorporate then a moisturizer and you let that work for you for a few days and you make sure that you're not reacting to that for a few days.
Once you have that green checkmark and green light, then you incorporate a cleanser.
You see how your skin does with the cleanser and the moisturizer over a few days.
And then it can allow you to sort of pivot and see in which direction you're going.
But that puts the control back in your hands that you're not just living this crazy life of reactivity and trying to calm it with this and use that.
And then it stings more and it gets more inflamed.
And it's this never ending cycle.
Yeah.
It just cuts it.
