Sensitive skin demands more than gentle care—it requires precise formulations that cleanse effectively without causing inflammation, redness, or discomfort. At Aya's Touch, Biologique Recherche’s curated selection of cleansers delivers decades of research, offering treatments that respect your skin while thoroughly removing impurities.
These are not ordinary “gentle” cleansers; they are sophisticated formulations for reactive skin, with calming botanicals, barrier-strengthening lipids, and pH-balanced bases. Designed to work with your skin’s natural defenses, they help maintain clarity, balance, and long-term resilience.
Understanding What Makes Skin Truly Sensitive
Before choosing a cleanser, it’s important to understand why your skin reacts so intensely. Sensitive skin is not a type—it’s a condition caused by a compromised protective barrier, which allows irritants to penetrate while moisture escapes.
Insights and benefits include:
-
Barrier dysfunction causes sensitivity: Genetics, environmental damage, over-exfoliation, harsh products, or conditions like rosacea and eczema can weaken the skin.
-
Hyperactive nerve endings: A weakened barrier triggers burning, stinging, and itching sensations characteristic of sensitive skin.
-
Gentle cleansing: Products must rebuild and maintain the barrier while avoiding common irritants such as fragrances, essential oils, harsh surfactants, and high concentrations of active ingredients.
-
Targeted formulations at Aya’s Touch: Every cleanser in the sensitive skin collection supports barrier function, reduces inflammation, and provides effective yet gentle cleansing.
-
Personalized recommendations: Understanding your skin’s triggers allows Aya to suggest precise products that calm, protect, and strengthen your complexion.
This approach ensures sensitive skin is cared for with formulations designed to maintain balance, minimize irritation, and improve resilience over time.
Lait Dermo-S: The Soothing Milk Cleanser for Reactive Skin
Biologique Recherche's Lait Dermo-S represents the gold standard in gentle cleansing for sensitive complexions. This milky cleanser removes makeup, impurities, and daily buildup without stripping natural oils or disrupting your skin's pH balance.
Why Lait Dermo-S is exceptional:
-
Formulated without harsh sulfates that strip the protective barrier
-
Contains reconditioning ingredients rebuilding damaged barrier function
-
Preserves the hydrolipidic film protecting against environmental irritants
-

Aya recommends warming Lait Dermo-S between your palms before gently pressing it onto dry skin, allowing the emulsion to dissolve makeup without friction. This method cleanses thoroughly while treating your sensitive skin with respect.
Eau Micellaire Biosensible: Micellar Water for Delicate Cleansing
For those days when even the gentlest milk cleanser feels like too much, Eau Micellaire Biosensible offers an ultra-mild alternative. This sophisticated micellar water uses microscopic cleansing molecules that attract and lift away impurities like magnets, requiring no harsh rubbing.
