Joëlle Ciocco Tells : A Note on Particularly Sensitive Skin
A Note on Particularly Sensitive Skin
For over thirty years, I have observed, touched, and listened to the skin. So-called “sensitive” skins are everywhere today: red, reactive, uncomfortable…
They are speaking to us, but we often silence them with poorly chosen products.
“And yet, sensitive skin is not temperamental. It is in distress.”
It is telling us that its defense mechanisms are weakened. Sometimes from birth – fine, fragile, delicate genetics. Sometimes over time, due to diet, climate, stress, or even… “cosmetic obesity.”
Faced with these imbalances, I propose a solution radical in its simplicity, and deeply effective: “the cosmetic fast.”
“The cosmetic fast,” what is it? Let’s let your microbiota speak:
- Do not multiply products, even less so different brands, which risk entering into biological conflict. Your epidermis no longer knows which way to turn.
- Opt for a gentle double cleansing every evening, without ever being aggressive. It is the fundamental gesture that conditions everything that follows.
- Use only one treatment, and if possible, from the same family as your cleanser, to avoid molecular discord.
It is not a trend, it is a discipline. Give your skin two months. Two months of consistency, simplicity, and regularity. You will be surprised by what your skin is capable of… building a microbiota, your true anti-aging skin film.
