Stellar Market Research projects the sensitive skin care market will grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2024 to 2030 to reach ~US $239.73 billion. Demand is attributed to heightened consumer awareness of sensitive skin issues and a preference for gentle, fragrance-free formulations. In addition, innovations such as probiotics and ceramides have been developed to strengthen the skin barrier. Notably, dermatologist-endorsed brands are gaining popularity, addressing consumer demand for expert-recommended solutions. This week's product spotlight, Burt’s Bees Calming Day Lotion with Aloe and Rice Milk, provides a prime example.
Burt’s Bees Calming Day Lotion with Aloe and Rice Milk
Burt’s Bees Calming Day Lotion with Aloe and Rice Milk for sensitive skin incorporates a blend of humectants, oils and squalane to improve skin's moisture barrier when used daily as directed.
According to the company, the 98.8% natural formula is based on a soothing blend of rice extract and aloe is coupled with cotton extract, which softens skin and helps to shield it against potential irritants.
The product is clinically shown to calm and soothe sensitive skin and reduce visible signs of redness. It is free from parabens, phthalates, petrolatum or SLS, and was developed with dermatologists, receiving the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance.
User Reviews: Burt’s Bees Calming Day Lotion
Following are example user reviews (edited for style), selected for their anecdotal insights on product form and function. (Note that as with most products, the user feedback on the company website is mixed.)
- I have normal sensitive skin prone to redness. ..I’ve been using this lotion for 4 weeks now and I love it. It’s a great light weight non-irritating moisturizer, that I layer with a sunscreen and my skin never feels greasy, dry or uncomfortable. I just don’t feel anything on my face. Also I decided to make this my regular daily moisturizer, but for a very specific reason - it’s the Burts’s Bees Terracycle program.
- Great for my dry sensitive skin. Doesn't leave you feeling greasy.
- Nice light lotion. Absorbs well, great for me though I also need a deeper moisturizer as well as I have very dry skin.
- Burt's Bees Sensitive Lotion has been a game-changer for my sensitive skin! It has reduced puffiness, redness, and made my skin incredibly soft, making it easier for me to smile. It absorbs quickly, doesn't feel greasy, and is made with natural ingredients. Highly recommended for happier, healthier skin!
