Use an effective face oil that’s safe for sensitive skin

If you suffer from sensitive skin, it can often be difficult to find gentle skincare that’s effective and free from artificial ingredients. Having struggled to find products that perform without causing irritation, founder of Robyn Skincare, Eleanor Robyn Olsen, decided to dedicate her brand to creating effective formulas with naturally derived ingredients. Its latest product, Limitless Facial Oil, aims to improve skin hydration and firmness as well as pigmentation. The active ingredient Sytenol ®A works in a similar way to retinol, without the added side-effects, making it a safer option for your skin.
