Ingredients to look for with Dry & Sensitive Skin Concerns
What the research says about Dry & Sensitive Skin Concerns
- Hyaluronic acid draws in water, but works best layered under a moisturizer that seals it in — on its own it can leave skin drier.
- Ceramides and squalane replace the lipids a compromised barrier is missing, the way the skin's own do.
- Allantoin and centella are well-studied for soothing the look of dry, irritated skin.
- Low-pH, sulfate-free cleansing protects the barrier that dry, sensitive skin depends on.
- What you leave out matters — added fragrance is a common trigger, which is why the research keeps pointing back to fragrance-free.

Sorrel & Co Products with The Ingredients That Research Points To
Dew Cream
For dry, sensitive skin — a light niacinamide and allantoin moisturizer that soothes and keeps the barrier soft and comfortable.
Repair Serum
For dry, stressed skin — a calming layer of snail mucin and centella to support comfort and a hydrated-looking barrier.
Hydration Serum
For dehydrated skin — four molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to layer hydration from the surface inward, best sealed with a moisturizer.
Face Oil
For dry, depleted skin — jojoba, squalane, and magnolia to soften and reinforce the barrier with lipids close to skin's own.
Renewal Cream
For dry skin using actives — retinol balanced by a full ceramide blend so the barrier stays supported and comfortable.
