- The product is safe for your sensitive skin, with no harsh ingredients that could cause irritation.
How to apply

Questions and answers
How well does Sisley Hydra-Global work for sensitive skin?
Sisley Hydra-Global works decently for sensitive skin by offering moderate hydration and soothing benefits, though other products fit it better. A moisturizing treatment for sensitive skin needs soothing ingredients, extra hydrating agents like glycerin and hyaluronic acid, and barrier-repairing components to calm redness and keep skin smooth.
Which ingredients make this treatment a good fit for sensitive skin?
Hyaluronic acid and lavender oil help calm redness and irritation, while glycerin and padina pavonica thallus extract keep skin hydrated and supported. A moisturizing treatment for sensitive skin also needs soothing ingredients like niacinamide, peptides, or snail mucin to strengthen the skin barrier.
What does Water do for sensitive skin?
Using cool water for facial cleansing preserves skin barrier integrity and lowers skin surface pH in healthy adults. This helps keep skin calm and hydrated without causing the irritation associated with warmer water.
What does Butylene Glycol do for sensitive skin?
Butylene glycol helps keep dry skin hydrated and smooth, but it may cause allergic reactions or irritation in sensitive skin. A product for sensitive skin needs soothing extracts and a very gentle, tested safety profile to avoid redness and discomfort.

Where does this treatment go in a skincare routine for sensitive skin?
This treatment goes in the evening routine after cleansing and toning, and before moisturizing. Sensitive skin works best with products that provide gentle hydration and calming ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and soothing plant extracts.

Can I use this treatment with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this treatment alongside retinol by applying the treatment after your retinol has absorbed to help keep your skin calm and hydrated. This type of routine benefits from incorporating gentle barrier-repairing ingredients and soothing agents to protect delicate skin from dryness and irritation.
How often should I use this treatment?
You can use this treatment in your evening routine as part of your skincare steps. Sensitive skin needs a product with gentle soothing ingredients and barrier-repairing support to avoid redness and irritation.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Health Science Reports, 2021
Can this treatment clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for sensitive skin?
This treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for sensitive skin, as its safe formula avoids harsh ingredients that typically trigger irritation. It helps keep skin calm and hydrated, though sensitive skin dealing with redness and breakouts often needs targeted soothing extracts and gentle barrier-strengthening ingredients to feel its best.
Can I use this treatment around the eyes or on my body?
This treatment is safe for your sensitive skin, but because it is formulated as a general facial treatment, it lacks the specialized ingredients and targeted benefits needed to effectively address the unique thinness of the eye area or the specific needs of body skin.
Is this treatment fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum).
What the research says
A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Cellulose acetate and soy protein hydrolysate nanofibrous dressings promote fibroblast proliferation in vitro and accelerate wound healing with reduced scar formation in vivo.
Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2018The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant.
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.
