Even though Sebamed products are frequently marketed as being mild and ideal for sensitive skin, individual reactions can differ, and it's possible that you were sensitive to the product.
While the pH of face cleaning products is an important aspect of skincare, it is not the only cause of irritation. A pH of about 5.5 is ideal for healthy skin since it acts as a barrier against dangerous bacteria.
• The pH of the majority of Sebamed face washes is 5.5, which is theoretically in line with the skin's natural pH. Still, for a variety of reasons, some people might get irritated even with a matched pH.
• Ingredients are just as important as pH; things like alcohols, harsh surfactants, fragrances, and essential oils can irritate skin, particularly that of sensitive skin.
• Another factor to take into account is the cleanser's strength, since some formulations meant for deeper cleaning might be too strong for certain skin types.
• Furthermore, each person has a different level of skin sensitivity, so even a product that is gentle for most people may still cause reactions in some.
Consequently, it's critical to take into account a variety of factors when determining the reason behind redness and irritation following the use of skincare products.
