1. Simplify
Yes, layer. But if your skin is out of whack, cut down on the number of products you're applying "and avoid products which contain multiple actives," advises Matulich.
2. Go hypo-allergenic
Enlisting a low-irritant, fragrance- and preservative-free moisturiser will hydrate the skin and create "a temporary, protective barrier, allowing sensitised skin to repair," says Matulich.
3. Go soap free
Recruit a soap-free cleanser into your beauty routine to cut back on cleansing-related redness and dryness. Or skip water altogether and opt for a micellar.
