Many clients have sensitive skin. If your skin is sensitive, then it will be more likely to react to the ingredients in certain products. That is why it is important for an esthetician to use ingredients that are specifically designed for sensitive skin. There are a number of ingredients that are known for soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.

Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera is one of the ingredients that should be used during a spa treatment. It has antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. It can also be used to treat a variety of conditions including acne, burns and dry skin.

Additionally, Aloe Vera can act as an exfoliator. This will remove dead skin cells and promote cell regeneration.

Argan Oil

Argan oil is an ingredient that is used in many skincare products. It is made up of vitamin E and fatty acids. It comes from the Morroco tree. When Argan oil is applied to the skin, it can hydrate and reduce the signs of aging. Argan oil can also prevent sun damage.

Jojoba Oil

The Jojoba plant is grown in North America. The extract from the plant can be made into oil. Jojoba oil is great for the skin because it has moisturizing properties. It can also prevent bacteria from building up on your skin. This can prevent acne from forming.

Additionally, Jojoba oil can help stimulate the production of collagen. This is a protein that is found in your skin. Collagen production decreases as you get older, which can lead to fine lines and wrinkles.

Shea Butter

Shea butter comes from the Shea tree. It has vitamin A and E. It also has fatty acids that can stimulate the production of collagen.
