We often hear: “My skin is sensitive.”
But the truth is – there are different types of sensitivity, and the differences matter.
Once you understand which group your skin belongs to, you can finally care for it the right way… and the result is calmer, more radiant, more resilient skin.
Let’s take a closer look... 👇
1) Sensitive Skin
How to recognize it:
- Feels tight, itchy, or burning,
- Reacts to cold, wind, or some cosmetic products,
- Often thin, with a weaker skin barrier.
Why it happens:
It’s an innate trait – your nerve endings and skin barrier are simply more sensitive.
Care that helps:
- Use gentle products without perfume or alcohol,
- Focus on long-lasting hydration and strengthening the skin barrier.
(skin that reacts quickly to temperature changes, wind, or dryness)
Golden Cleansing Gel – gently cleans without irritation.
Immortelle Mist – calms and refreshes.
Golden Hydrating Cream – lightweight hydration for daytime.
(at night, when needed) Golden Nourishing Cream – deeper protection and repair.
2) Reactive Skin
How to recognize it:
- Reacts to almost every new product,
- Redness, burning, or breakouts appear very quickly,
- Worsens after exfoliation, strong serums, or UV exposure.
Why it happens:
Your skin has been overloaded – too many active ingredients, too many exfoliants, or the wrong cosmetics.
Care that helps:
- Hit the reset button – let your skin breathe,
- Stick to basic, soothing products that calm and restore.
Golden Cleansing Gel – extra gentle cleansing.
Immortelle Mist – calming tonic after every wash.
Golden Hydrating Cream – restores moisture, soothes.
100% Immortelle Oil – targeted treatment for redness or tightness.
3) Intolerant Skin
How to recognize it:
- Almost every product causes a reaction,
- Even natural or minimalist formulas trigger discomfort,
- Responds with redness, itching, or burning.
Why it happens:
This is skin with an extremely low tolerance – often linked to allergies or severe barrier weakness.
Care that helps:
- Use as few products as possible, with the shortest ingredient lists,
- Protect and soothe with gentle, hypoallergenic formulas.
Cleansing only with Immortelle Mist – no gel, just cotton or gentle misting.
100% Immortelle Oil – mixed with cream.
Golden Hydrating Cream – as main protection, when the skin can accept it.
(when needed) Golden Nourishing Cream – if the skin is very dry and needs extra shielding.
