Foundation sensitive skin

It’s hard enough finding the right skincare when suffering from sensitive skin, however finding the right make-up can feel like an even greater chore sometimes. Specifically finding the right foundation for sensitive skin. Ideally a foundation for sensitive skin will blend smoothlessly, create the desired coverage and won’t irritate the skin. Good thing that Korean foundations are designed with sensitive skin types in mind. You will find liquid foundations and cushion foundations for every skin type at Little Wonderland. Ranging from sheer finish that gives your skin a healthy glow, to full-coverage foundations that will cover any redness or pigmentation. So no matter your skin type, or whether your skin gets easily irritated, has rosacea or eczema, there will always be a Korean foundation that is right for your unique skin.

What foundation is good for sensitive skin?

When your skin is sensitive and easily irritated it’s smart to look for several things in a foundation. First the formula, a mineral or powder formula might become your go-to. Since these formulas sit on top of the skin and are extremely mild, there is a lesser chance of irritation or pore blockage. But worry not, if you prefer more coverage a liquid formula might be just as suitable for your fragile skin. With liquid foundation formulas or cushion foundations it’s important to make sure that these are designed or suitable for sensitive skin, non-comedogenic and that they are also hypoallergenic. If the foundation ticks all those boxes, great chance that you’ve found the one.

Avoiding harsh ingredients is also something to keep in mind, unnecessary fragrances or essential oils might irritate sensitive skin types so it’s good to go through the ingredients before purchasing a (cushion) foundation. Loads of Korean cushion foundations are designed with sensitive skin in mind, since a ton of people in Korea also suffer from sensitivity.

You will find that Korean cushion foundations all have beneficial ingredients added into their formulas. Besides creating a smooth looking skin, they will also nourish it with some amazing ingredients. If you have sensitive skin and suffer from dry skin at the same time it might be good to have a look at foundations which are also infused with mild hydrating ingredients like aloe vera extract or centella asiatica. Those with oily, sensitive skin might prefer anti-inflammatory and sebum balancing formulas which include green tea extract.
