People with sensitive skin usually choose skincare products with particular care. Cosmetics with donkey milk can be part of a simple skincare routine: they moisturize and leave the skin feeling pleasant. Whether a product is right for your skin, however, depends on the overall formulation and your skin. Here you will find practical tips on how to try new skincare carefully.
What is meant by “sensitive skin”
“Sensitive skin” is not a fixed technical term, but rather a description used in everyday life. Many people mean that their skin quickly feels tight, feels uncomfortable after certain products, or reacts to changes in the weather. How pronounced this is varies greatly.
It is important to draw a clear distinction: If your skin is permanently red, itchy, weeping, or has changed significantly, it is no longer a matter of skincare. Then it should be in the hands of a dermatologist.
Less is often more: a simple routine
For sensitive skin, a few well-chosen products are recommended. Every new product brings new ingredients. The fewer you use at the same time, the easier it is to recognize what feels pleasant for you and what does not.
| Step | What you do | What to pay attention to |
|---|---|---|
| Cleanse | Cleanse gently, lukewarm water | Do not shower too hot, do not rub |
| Dry | Pat the skin gently | Use a soft towel |
| Care | Apply body milk or cream | Apply to slightly damp skin, spread thinly |
For body care after showering, we have the Sensitive Body Milk made from donkey milk. It moisturizes and makes the skin supple.
How to properly test new products
Before you use a new skincare product over a large area, a small test is worth it. Here is how you do it:
- Choose an area: Take a small, inconspicuous area of skin, for example, the inside of the forearm or the crook of the arm.
- Apply thinly: Spread a small amount of the product on the area.
- Wait: Monitor the area for 24 to 48 hours.
- Decide: If everything feels normal, you can gradually incorporate the product into your routine. If redness, burning, or itching occurs, do not use it further.
Read the ingredients and pay attention to milk protein
Every cosmetic package has an INCI list. It lists all the ingredients, ordered by quantity. For people with sensitive skin, it is the most important tool for selection.
- Fragrances: Check if perfume or certain fragrances are included if you want to avoid them.
- Known triggers: If you know that you react to a certain substance, search specifically for it.
- Milk protein: Donkey milk contains milk protein. If you have a milk protein allergy, please clarify beforehand with a doctor whether products with donkey milk are an option for you.
Care for the face and dry areas
The facial skin is often thinner and reacts more quickly to changes. Therefore, introduce new facial skincare particularly carefully and test it beforehand. Our face cream with donkey milk is intended for daily care. For particularly dry areas on the hands or elbows, there is the richer Repair Cream. You can find an overview of all products in the donkey milk cosmetics collection.
Everyday factors that influence the skin feeling
Not only skincare products play a role in how your skin feels. Everyday things can also make a difference:
- Water: Many people find very hot or long showers unpleasant for the skin.
- Clothing: Soft, breathable fabrics often feel more pleasant than scratchy materials.
- Detergents: Some people prefer mild, fragrance-free detergents.
- Room climate: Dry heating air in winter can increase the feeling of tightness.
Observe what is pleasant for you in everyday life, and adapt your routine step by step. Major changes all at once make it difficult to recognize connections.
Frequently asked questions
Is donkey milk cosmetics automatically suitable for sensitive skin?
No, that cannot be said generally. Every skin reacts individually, and it depends on the overall formulation. Therefore, always test new products on a small area first.
How often should I apply a body milk?
Many people apply it once daily after showering. Follow your skin feeling and the instructions on the label.
What do I do if my skin reacts to a product?
Do not use the product further and wash the area with lukewarm water. If the reaction persists or is severe, contact your doctor.
Can I try several new products at the same time?
Better not. Introduce new products one after another, with a few days in between. This way you can more easily recognize which product is right for your skin.
