The combination of 4-t-butylcyclohexanol, licochalcone A, soothing peptide, and ceramides in Sensitive Cream provides a multi-faceted approach to skin care. It offers immediate soothing effects, reduces inflammation, strengthens the skin barrier, and improves overall skin comfort. This makes it particularly suitable for use in post-procedure scenarios where the skin is temporarily more sensitive and in need of gentle, yet effective care.

The cream’s ability to modulate sensory responses and provide anti-inflammatory benefits can help reduce post-procedure redness, irritation, and discomfort. Additionally, the ceramide complex supports barrier repair, which is crucial for proper healing after skin treatments.

By addressing both immediate discomfort and long-term skin health, this cream formulation offers comprehensive care for a wide range of sensitive skin conditions and post-procedure needs.

4-t-butylcyclohexanol

A potent anti-irritant, works rapidly to calm skin discomfort. It significantly reduces stinging and burning sensations within minutes of application, providing immediate relief to sensitive and reactive skin. This active helps increase your skin’s tolerance threshold, making it less prone to irritation over time.

Its main mechanism is to inhibit the NF-κB pathway, reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and TNF-α.

Licochalcone A

Derived from licorice root, offers powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. It helps protect skin cells from damage caused by environmental stressors and UV radiation. This natural compound also aids in soothing redness and irritation, making it ideal for sensitive and rosacea-prone skin.

Acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester

A tripeptide known as β-Ala-Pro-Dab-NH₂. This specialized compound acts as a biomimetic of enkephalins, interacting with the skin’s sensory nerve endings. Its unique mechanism of action provides several benefits for sensitive skin:

    • Enhances skin comfort by modulating sensory responses
    • Promotes a feeling of well-being in the skin
    • Helps reduce the appearance of expression lines and wrinkles
    • Supports a more relaxed and smoother skin surface
    • May assist in minimizing skin reactivity to environmental stressors

Advanced Ceramide Complex

The cream features a concentration of an advanced ceramide complex, which includes:

    • Ceramide NP
    • Ceramide AP
    • Ceramide EOP
    • Phytosphingosine
    • Cholesterol
