Ultra Sensitive Skin Pack

When your skin is extremely sensitive, inflamed or reacting to almost everything, constantly changing products can make it difficult for your skin to settle.

Following this simple routine, consistently, for 4–8 weeks gives your skin time to replenish essential natural oils (lipids), which in turn strengthens the skins protective barrier and improves moisture retention, reducing irritation, reactiveness and sensitivity.

Our Ultra Sensitive Skin Pack focuses on just two oil-based products to help support calmer, more comfortable and resilient skin before gradually introducing additional skincare and steps within your routine.

Every skin is different, and recovery times will vary depending on the cause of sensitivity.

ULTRA SENSITIVE SKIN DUO
Best for: Extremely sensitive, inflamed and highly reactive skin.

Choose this pack if your skin:
- Reacts to almost everything you apply.
- Has reacted to past skincare.
- Experiences frequent redness, irritation or inflammation.
- Experiences inflammatory skin condition flare ups, such as rosacea, dermatitis or eczema.
- Feels uncomfortable, tight or easily aggravated.
- Struggles to tolerate multiple skincare products.
- Needs a very simple, oil-based routine focused on replenishing natural oils.

The goal:
A minimal, two-step routine to support lipid (oil) replenishment and the skin’s protective barrier, to calm and strengthen the skin, before introducing additional skincare.

SKIN BARRIER REPAIR PACK
Best for: Skin needing ongoing barrier support, hydration and strengthening.

Choose this pack if your skin:
- Experiences dryness, redness or sensitivity.
- Has been prone to skin sensitivity in the past.
- Needs support maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
- Can tolerate a more comprehensive skincare routine, but can flare up occasionally.
- Can get inflammatory skin condition flare ups, such as eczema or dermatitis.
- Would benefit from additional hydration and barrier-supporting ingredients.

The goal:
A more comprehensive routine focused on maintaining skin moisture levels, strengthening the skin barrier and supporting long-term skin health.

When your skin's protective barrier is compromised, it can struggle to retain moisture, leaving it feeling dry, tight, irritated and reactive.

Often, the first step is to replenish the skin's essential oils (lipids) to help rebuild its protective barrier.

This supports your skin in two important ways:
1. Protecting against external irritants – helping reduce sensitivity and irritation.
2. Retaining moisture more effectively – supporting hydration, healthier barrier function and long-term skin resilience and balance.

Our two-step oil-based routine focuses on replenishing essential skin lipids, supporting the skin's protective layer and reducing moisture loss, without introducing multiple skincare products.

It's a simplified approach to nourishing and protecting sensitive skin while supporting long-term skin barrier health.

Not necessarily!
Oil-based skincare doesn't automatically cause clogged pores or breakouts.
It comes down to the ingredients, the types of oils used in the formulation and your individual skin needs.

Our Soother Pre-Cleanse is designed to gently melt away impurities, while Soother Treatment provides lightweight, nourishing plant oils to support the skin's protective barrier.

Both formulations contain carefully selected oils designed to support a range of skin types, including dry and oily skin.

Jojoba oil, found in both products, is particularly beneficial because of its similarity to the skin's natural sebum. It helps soften and loosen excess oil and buildup, supporting a gentle cleanse without stripping the skin's protective oils.

Of course, every skin is different.
If you're prone to congestion or breakouts and feel unsure about introducing an oil-based routine, our qualified skin therapists are here to help.

Simply book a complimentary Skin Check-In, via the 'skin consults' tab on our website and we'll help you understand what's best for your skin and guide you through your next steps with confidence.

The main difference is how reactive your skin is and how much skincare it can comfortably tolerate.

Ultra Sensitive Skin Pack: Designed for extremely sensitive, inflamed or highly reactive skin that struggles with traditional skincare. Just two oil-based products focused on replenishing natural oils and supporting the protective barrier.

Skin Barrier Repair Pack: Designed for skin experiencing dryness, dehydration or sensitivity that can tolerate a more comprehensive routine with additional hydrating and barrier-supporting ingredients.

If you're unsure, our qualified skin therapists can help you choose a routine suited to your skin's individual needs.

When your skin reacts to almost everything, it's understandable to feel frustrated, overwhelmed and unsure what to try next.

At Fresh Face Skin, we regularly work with extremely sensitive, inflamed and reactive skin in our Melbourne-based skin salon. Through our hands-on experience, we've seen how important it can be to simplify skincare and focus on restoring the skin's protective barrier before introducing additional products.

That's why we've created this minimal, two-step oil-based routine, using products we also work with closely, in our salon to support highly reactive and inflamed skin.

Rather than adding more ingredients, the focus is on replenishing natural skin oils (lipids), reducing moisture loss and supporting a stronger, more resilient skin barrier over 4–8 weeks.

Sometimes, supporting your skin starts with doing less, not more.

Giving your skin 4–8 weeks to settle and rebuild its protective barrier can help improve its resilience and ability to tolerate additional skincare, including hydration-based products, with less irritation and reactivity.
But first, we need to be patient and focus on replenishing the skin's essential oils (lipids) to create a stronger, healthier foundation before introducing anything new.
