Can I use Diabetoline CREAM if I have sensitive skin?
- Absolutely. Diabetoline cream is especially designed for sensitive skin and should be gentle enough to be tolerated by even the most sensitive skin types. The formula does not contain superfluous and aggressive ingredients that can cause rather than combat inflammation and irritated skin.
- However, everyone's skin is unique and can negatively react to any ingredient. For example, some people may find they are sensitive to natural ingredients such as essential oils or fruit extracts, and for this reason we display the full product ingredients within the product page of our website to enable customers to make an informed choice before purchase. Even the most "gentle" ingredients can cause a reaction in certain people's skin so we recommend patch testing a small amount of the product on the inside skin of the wrist area to ascertain its compatibility if the person usually is highly sensitive.
