What skincare routine is best for sensitive skin?

Sensitive skin needs a minimal, fragrance-free routine with gentle formulations. Start with a mild cream cleanser, a calming moisturizer with ceramides and centella asiatica or oat extract, and a mineral sunscreen. Introduce actives one at a time, starting with low concentrations. PHAs are preferred over AHAs for exfoliation, and bakuchiol over retinol initially. Always patch test new products on the inner arm for 24–48 hours before full application.
