1) Steer clear of facial washes and soaps, as these are likely to strip your skin of oil and mositure, which can increase sensitivity further. Choose a light hypo-allergenic cleansing lotion.
2) Even the mildest skin freshener can break down the natural protection on sensitive skin. So freshen your face by just splashing it with warm water.
3) Never rub your face to dry it, pat it gently with a soft towel.
