Best serums and treatments for sensitive skin

Rated by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

What makes a good serum for sensitive skin

Serums with vitamin C, ceramides, and palmitoyl tripeptide-5 help calm your redness and irritation, while ingredients like tocopherol and beta-glucan protect your sensitive skin. Serums with centella asiatica extract, niacinamide, and madecassic acid reduce your reactions to new products and help strengthen your skin barrier.

Products are ranked for the concerns frequently associated with sensitive skin: redness, stinging, and reactions to new products. For a ranking based on your full skin profile, including your 12D face scan results and any goals or preferences you have, please use the Lovi app.
