Is this for you?

Use it if two or more of these are true right now.

  • Your plain moisturiser, or even water, stings.
  • Your skin feels tight all day, even after moisturising.
  • You have shiny, thin-looking, rough or raw patches.
  • Redness doesn't fade overnight.
  • It started after adding actives (retinoids, acids, vitamin C, benzoyl peroxide, scrubs, peels) or after using several at once.

What's inside

  • Phase 1: 7–14 days of a three-job routine
  • A daily comfort check that tells you when you're ready
  • Phase 2: a default reintroduction order
  • Flowchart: what to do if a product bothers you again
  • Worked example
  • 14-day log and reintroduction planner

If you have blisters, oozing, swelling, eye involvement or no improvement after 14 days, see a doctor or pharmacist. This guide isn't for that.

Educational guide. Not medical advice. Not for use during pregnancy or alongside prescription retinoids without your prescriber's OK.
