If you have very sensitive skin, you’ve likely tried plenty of products that haven’t worked for you. Whether you’ve been irritated by the fragrance or ended up with redness or irritation, it can be a really frustrating experience trying to find just the right routine to care for your reactive skin.
French skin care maker La Roche-Posay created its Toleriane line specifically for people with very sensitive, allergy-prone skin who may be sensitive to parabens, fragrance, alcohol and preservatives. The Toleriane Ultra collection, specifically, is designed to provide instant soothing relief and long-lasting comfort for sensitive, irritated skin. Ready to learn more? Here’s your guide to the full collection:
The Toleriane Ultra collection consists of three different products: a day cream, night cream and eye cream. All three products have been dermatologist-tested on sensitive skin and are non-comedogenic. They are also free of parabens, alcohol, preservatives and fragrance and have air-tight packaging to keep out any trace of contaminants.
All three products in the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Ultra collection also contain La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water, mineral-rich water sourced from the French town of La Roche-Posay that contains a high concentration of selenium, a natural antioxidant.
Formerly known as La Roche-Posay Toleriane Ultra, this day cream has a new name, but it provides the same comforting relief to sensitive, allergy-prone skin. In addition to La Roche-Posay’s signature Thermal Spring Water, this moisturizer also contains glycerin to hydrate and dimethicone to protect skin and reduce moisture loss. Shea butter that’s sustainably sourced in Burkina Faso helps restore your skin’s hydrolipidic film, while neurosensine (a synthetic dipeptide) helps soothe irritated skin. You can use it as part of your morning routine after cleansing and before applying your daily sunscreen.
By the end of the day, chances are your skin will be craving some restorative moisture. This product has a luxurious gel-cream texture that will make a welcome addition to your nighttime routine. After cleansing your face, dispense a few pumps onto your fingers and gently pat into your skin. In addition to La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water, neurosensine and shea butter, this night cream contains vitamin E to help neutralize the damage caused by free radicals and niacinamide to help restore your skin’s moisture barrier and fade discoloration.
A dedicated eye cream can really help nourish and protect the delicate skin around your eyes, which is why La Roche-Posay created this eye cream as part of its Toleriane Ultra collection. It was formulated specifically to restore the natural moisture barrier around the eyes and eyelids, which can be especially helpful if you’ve reacted poorly to other eye creams in the past or have dryness, irritation or sensitivity in this area. It’s packed with all of the hallmark ingredients of the Toleriane Ultra collection, including neurosensine, niacinamide, shea butter, glycerin and La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water. To use, dab a small amount around the eye area and on your eyelids as well.
