Makeup Products for Sensitive Skin

Makeup products for sensitive skin are specially created to minimise irritation, redness and discomfort while still offering excellent coverage and wearable results. Makeup Brushes & Tools, gentle formulas and soft textures help create a comfortable application experience for those with reactive or easily irritated skin.

Our sensitive-skin makeup range provides dermatologist-tested, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic options ideal for daily use. These products help reduce redness, calm irritation and prevent flare-ups while enhancing your natural features with lightweight and soothing formulations.

What are makeup products for sensitive skin?

These products are formulated without harsh preservatives, strong fragrances, heavy alcohols or common allergens. They are created to support fragile skin barriers and minimise the chance of breakouts or discomfort. Most products in this category are suitable for people who experience reactions to regular cosmetics or have conditions such as rosacea or dry, tight skin.

Makeup for sensitive skin is also effective when paired with gentle skincare categories like Facial Cleansers for Sensitive Skin to keep irritation to a minimum.

What are these products used for?

They are used to provide coverage, even out the skin tone and enhance facial features without causing adverse reactions. These formulations aim to calm the skin, reduce redness and maintain comfort throughout the day.

They are ideal for individuals who struggle with cosmetic-induced irritation, sensitivity around the eyes or dryness caused by harsh ingredients.

How to use makeup for sensitive skin?

First, ensure that the skin is cleansed and moisturised with gentle, fragrance-free skincare. Apply makeup using soft tools such as synthetic-fibre brushes or latex-free sponges to reduce friction. Slowly build coverage instead of applying thick layers at once.

Always remove makeup thoroughly using mild cleansers or sensitive-skin wipes to prevent buildup. Patch-testing new products is recommended for those with highly reactive skin.
