Description
Sensitive-feeling skin is one of the most common self-descriptions customers give. It stings with some products, flushes in the wind and feels tight after washing. IO Sensitive Skin Comfort Active is a water-soluble active whose name targets this group, with creams, lotions, masks, tonics and shampoos on its card.
Product data
Water-soluble. PH range 4.8 to 8. Applications from the card: creams, lotions, masks, tonics and shampoos. For this ingredient, the supplier CoA of each lot confirms the exact INCI, composition and recommended level.
Designing for sensitive skin
Sensitive-skin products work best with short ingredient lists, no or minimal fragrance, mild preservatives and gentle textures. The active is one part of a complete approach.

Formulating guidance
Add the active during cool-down into the water phase and keep the finished pH within the listed range. For this ingredient, pair it with bisabolol for a calm-looking story, ceramide NP for barrier support and D-Panthenol for comfort. Ingredients that pair well with this ingredient are collected under actives.
Claims

Who the products are for
Customers with sensitive-feeling skin or scalp, those reacting to fragrance and people in harsh climates.
Scalp comfort
Sensitive scalps feel tight or tingly after some shampoos. Mild surfactants plus a comfort active make a gentle shampoo.
Testing
Run stability at room temperature and 40 °C, checking pH, viscosity and appearance.
Packaging
Airless pumps keep sensitive-skin products clean and protected.
Batch quality
Keep the CoA for each lot and store retained samples.
Range planning
A cream, a tonic and a shampoo form a sensitive line for face and scalp.
Labeling
Use the INCI from the CoA on the label.
Preservation
Choose mild preservatives and confirm with a challenge test.
Routine guidance
Gentle cleanser, tonic, comfort cream morning and evening, mineral sunscreen in the morning, mask once a week.
Seasonal use
Winter is the peak season for reactive-feeling skin. Richer winter versions suit cold months.
