All of us experienced changes during the pandemic’s lockdown phases. Work from home, staying home, and other factors of stress took over many of us. Owing to this, I went from being someone with dry skin, occasionally prone to acne, to being a snappy sensitive skin type. Once I figured out the causes of sensitive skin, I started making changes to my lifestyle and looking for home remedies for sensitive skin. Are you wondering how to get rid of sensitive skin naturally? I understand, and I’ve got you covered.
A Miracle Routine Of Skincare For Sensitive Skin

Oil-based face cleanser
- Washing your face with oil - sounds like an oxymoron, doesn’t it? To me, it did. I would always look for a product that would hydrate my skin, and foam well, and never realised that this would leave my skin feeling itchy and dry. What helped? Coconut oil.
- Homemade face cleanser: Take a little coconut oil in your palms, and warm it by rubbing your hands gently. Apply it to your face and massage well, in an outward circular motion. Then, take a washcloth and wet it with warm water to slowly wipe it off.

Natural face cleanser: A mild cleanser is a person with sensitive skin type needs, and Coco Soul’s Natural Face Wash was the one for me. It is enriched with coconut oil, neem, and gotukola. This paraben-free face wash is gentle, powered with Ayurvedic goodness, and is now my skin’s new best friend!

Gently exfoliating face scrub
- Scrubbing is a trigger word for people with sensitive skin. The words that come to mind are - redness, rashes, harshness, and irritation. The gentlest way I found to exfoliate my skin was to use a light textured liquid to scrub, which doesn’t attack my face and is smooth on my skin.
- Homemade face scrub: Using brown sugar and olive oil scrub twice a week helped me whiten the blemishes, blackheads, and glow. The paste was smooth, soft, and easy on my skin.

A daily scrub, a natural exfoliator, and rich in Ayurvedic herbs, the sulphate-free Coco Soul Face Scrub was the perfect consistency of texture I was looking for. It is light, soft, smooth, and the mildest scrub I’ve used where the particles are so tiny that it almost felt like a cream!
- Taking care of my feet has been vital in my skincare. I love giving some much-need tender loving care to my feet, which goes one step further than a bucket of lukewarm water with stress-relieving salts and potions. After using the aforementioned Coco Soul products, I found a Foot Cream from their range of skincare products - and I’m in love with it!

The perfect definition of ‘pampering’ was Coco Soul’s Natural Foot Cream, which had an ingredient that I absolutely love - peppermint! I could feel the coolness before I even applied the cream, from the fragrant tube once I opened it up.
