When choosing a makeup remover for sensitive skin, it is important to check the ingredients label. Dermatologists recommend avoiding essential oils, retinoids or chemical exfoliants, high levels of vitamin C, alcohol, artificial fragrances, sulfates, and parabens, all of which can be irritating. Instead, look for skin-replenishing ingredients like glycerin, aloe vera, chamomile, calendula, cucumber, green tea, and natural oils like coconut, jojoba, and almond to remove and soothe.
