SENSITIVE SKIN PROTOCOL – PRONE TO REDNESS AND INFLAMMATION

Skin function to restore The goal is to calm skin reactivity, repair the protective barrier, and rebalance the inflammatory response. These skin types often show an altered microbiome and imbalanced pH; they react excessively to external aggressions. The priority: re‑teach the skin tolerance through biomimetic and soothing care.

Key MONO Actives and Scientific Evidence

  • Biosaccharide Gum‑1 → proven soothing effect: –47% skin reactivity and –24% discomfort vs placebo in 5 minutes (in vivo study).

  • Beta‑Glucan → strengthens the barrier, reduces redness, and improves firmness after 28 days.

  • Inulin & Alpha‑Glucan Oligosaccharide → rebalance the protective microbiome, reduce chronic inflammation, and provide lasting hydration.

  • Arctic Micro‑Algae → powerful antioxidant, limits inflammatory reaction to environmental stress.

These actives create a stable environment where the skin stops “overreacting”: this is MONO’s principle of gentle biological re‑education.

MONO Recommendations

  • Cleanser No.0 (for urban or makeup‑wearing skin) → cleanses without stripping, soothes immediately; ideal as evening pre‑cleanse.

  • Ultra‑Gentle Cleanser No.1 → cleanses effectively while maintaining physiological pH 5 and the protective hydrolipidic film.

  • Moisturizing Lotion No.6 → instantly soothes thanks to Biosaccharide Gum‑1; deeply hydrates, strengthens the barrier, and balances the microbiome.

  • Optional: for very reactive or inflamed skin, add Intense Hydration Serum No.5 in the evening to repair tissues and maintain elasticity.

Expected Results

  • Visible reduction of redness and sensations of heat.

  • Skin becomes more stable, more tolerant to climate variations and stress.

  • Long‑lasting restoration of hydrolipidic balance and comfort; the skin regains its natural regulatory intelligence.

MONO Scientific Logic

Sensitive skin does not need more products, but better biological signals. Through controlled pH 5, prebiotic and soothing actives, MONO reactivates self‑protection mechanisms and reprograms cellular tolerance for stable, lasting, and conscious beauty.
