Rosacea, eczema, acne, and post-treatment inflammation

A Cosmeceutical Approach to Sensitive Dermatological Concerns

Cosmeceutical Skin Care

Welcome to E.6 of The Sensitive Skin Standard 
Your weekly guide to evidence-based skincare solutions for reactive and ageing skin.


Rosacea. Eczema. Acne. Post-treatment inflammation and the cosmeceutical solution

These are more than common dermatological concerns—they are signs of a compromised skin barrier. At Skin Virtue, we believe sensitive skin deserves more than generic care, we take a corneotherapeutic barrier-first approach to restoring skin integrity—without triggering irritation.

In Edition 6, we explore how Skin Virtue’s bioactive cosmeceuticals are designed to treat some of the most challenging skin presentations in clinical settings.

👉 Read on and share with colleagues who value science-led, barrier-focused skincare.

1. Rosacea: Redness, Sensitivity, and Flare Management

Rosacea-prone skin often presents with persistent erythema, visible capillaries, and frequent flare-ups triggered by barrier disruption. Skin Virtue formulations avoid common irritants and instead utilise anti-inflammatory, antioxidant-rich actives to calm and rebalance the skin.

2. Eczema: Chronic Dryness, Barrier Dysfunction, and Inflammation

Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is defined by trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL), microcracking, and inflammation. Traditional moisturisers often fall short. Skin Virtue’s approach includes barrier-identical lipids and lamellar emulsions to mimic skin’s structure and repair its defences.

Recommended Products:

Pure Nourish Cleanse: Ultra-gentle surfactant system that preserves lipid integrity

Pure Nourish Moisturising Cream: Biomimetic lipids and NMFs rebuild barrier strength

Future Advanced Firming Mask: Lamellar cream mask with ionosome peptides

3. Acne: Inflammation, Breakouts, and Barrier Overload

Acne-prone skin is often sensitised due to overuse of harsh actives. Skin Virtue supports the skin’s microbiome and barrier health while gently targeting congestion, inflammation, and sebum regulation.

Recommended Products:

Super Clear Cleanser: Non-stripping formula that purifies while maintaining pH balance

Super Clear Clarifying Solution: Gently exfoliates using salicylic acid and bioactive's with anti-bacterial support

Super Clear Purifying Crème Gel: Oil-free hydration with anti-inflammatory actives

Super Clear Essential Cream: A lightweight, fast-absorbing, AHA + BHA anti-ageing night cream designed for sensitised, oily or combination skin prone to impurities.

4. Post-Treatment Recovery: Microneedling, Laser, and Peels

Clinical procedures often leave the skin barrier disrupted. Without the right aftercare, this can lead to increased sensitivity, pigmentation, and poor outcomes. Skin Virtue’s post-treatment solutions are designed to soothe, hydrate, and support rapid barrier restoration—minimising downtime while protecting your results.

Recommended Products:

Future Advanced Firming Mask: Instantly soothes inflammation, deeply hydrates and supports structural recovery

Future Advanced Hydrating Sheet Mask: Bioactive sheet mask ideal for post-procedure calming and rehydration

Future Advanced Radiance Serum: Lightweight antioxidant support to protect and calm sensitised skin
