Simple AM/PM Skincare Routine for Sensitive Skin (5 Steps)

If your skin gets irritated easily, the best routine is usually the simplest one. Here’s a practical AM/PM routine that focuses on barrier support.

Morning (AM)

1) Gentle cleanse (or rinse if very dry) 2) Hydrating serum (optional) 3) Moisturizer 4) Sunscreen (SPF 30+)

Night (PM)

1) Remove makeup/sunscreen 2) Gentle cleanser 3) Moisturizer 4) Barrier-supporting cream (optional)

What to avoid when you’re sensitive

Avoid adding multiple new actives at once. Introduce one product at a time so you can tell what helps (or irritates).

How to pick products

Prioritize fragrance-free options when possible, and choose products labeled for sensitive skin. If you’re unsure, patch test on a small area for a few days.

If you’d like, tell me your skin type (dry/oily/combination) and your top concern (redness, acne, dryness), and I’ll tailor this routine to you.
