Anti-Aging Skin Products to Try for Extremely Sensitive Skin

[This thread on Anti-Aging Skin Care for Eczema Suffers started Monday.]

Re Víve Moisturizing Renewal CreamI’m not a dermatologist, but I haven’t read that Anti-Aging Peptides should be avoided if you suffer from eczema. However I would proceed cautiously if I were Louise. Look for a simple formula containing one or two peptides plus the best blend of the other recommended ingredients.

Anti-Aging Skin Products to Try for Extremely Sensitive and Thin Skin

[Skin can be thinned by steroid and UV treatments used to treat eczema. Emollients and especially ceramides are specifically recommended for eczematous skin. Mild exfoliants help to remove scales and stimulate new collagen.]


Kinerase Pro+ Therapy Ultra Rich Night Repair

• Pros: Contains excellent emollients (Glycerin and three types of Ceramide) and antioxidants (Kinetin and Tocopheryl Acetate) plus Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 (more effective than Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, a.k.a. Matrixyl, for stimulating collagen production).

• Cons: Contains parabens.

RéVive Moisturizing Renewal Cream

• Pros: Contains Glycolic Acid for exfoliating, good emollients (Cyclomethicone, Glycerin and Dimethicone), antioxidants (Squalane, Avocado Oil and Tocopheryl Acetate), soothing Allantoin, and EGF, a peptide proven to stimulate new skin growth.

• Cons: Contains parabens and fragrances which may be irritating to sensitive skin (Limonene and Linalool).

Atopalm MLE Cream

• Pros: Rich in emollients (Glycerin, Myrisyl/Palmityl Oxostearamide/Arachamide MEA, Glyceryl Stearate, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil and Dimethicone) and skin-soothing ingredients (Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Licorice Root Extract and Allantoin). Its antioxidant ingredients are Grape Seed Oil and Tocopheryl Acetate. Specifically recommended for eczema, as well as rosacea and after skin peels.

• Cons: Contains parabens and un-named Fragrance which might be a skin irritant. No exfoliating or collagen stimulating ingredients.
