Beginning a Sensé Regime With Sensitive Skin

Sensé products were developed to combat the aging process with unique and powerful ingredients. In addition to moisturizing dry skin and protecting the skin's surface from water loss, these products contain specialized active ingredients targeted to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, increase skin elasticity, and improve skin texture. Sensé products are specifically designed to perform corrective skin care, and can have an extraordinary impact on aging skin.

Most people will experience only positive results when first beginning the Sensé regimen and their skins texture and appearance will begin to improve almost immediately. However a small percentage of people will experience changes in their skin that may cause concern.

If, at the beginning of your program, you suspect that your skin is very sensitive it is helpful to remember that whenever you introduce something new to your skin, it must go through an adjustment period. Every skin type will tolerate products differently, and your skin changes daily, even if you don't notice. We recommend that you try gradually introducing the products into your skin care regimen, and that you do not mix and match other skin care lines, simply because this may "confuse" the skin. Research suggests that it takes about 21 days for the skin to adjust to a new regimen. So don't give up.

When beginning any new skin regimen, many people automatically become more conscious of what is happening to their face and keep daily watch over their new investment. After all, the face is a billboard for expression and everyone wants it to look flawless. Try not to overreact to small changes that your skin experiences during this acclimation phase.
