Redness & Stressed Skin Skincare Routine
Red, reactive, or easily irritated skin needs more than “gentle” products - it needs a routine that calms inflammation, supports the skin barrier, and restores balance without overstimulation.
This routine is designed for skin prone to redness, sensitivity, stress-related flare-ups, and environmental irritation, focusing on barrier repair, microbiome support, and long-term skin resilience.
Morning Routine for Redness-Prone Skin
1. Cleanse — Gentle Bliss Gel Cleanser
A non-stripping cleanse that respects the skin barrier and prevents morning tightness or reactivity.
2. Soothe — Aura Essence
Hydrates while calming the skin and supporting microbiome balance to reduce visible stress responses.
3. Treat — NeuroCalm Serum (or RoseaCalm if rosacea-prone)
Targets redness, discomfort, and neuro-inflammation for visibly calmer skin.
4. Protect & Comfort — Everyday Day Cream / RoseaCalm Cream
Strengthens the barrier and reduces sensitivity throughout the day.
5. Protect — Sun Cream SPF 50+
Essential to prevent UV-induced redness, inflammation, and barrier disruption.
Evening Routine for Redness-Prone Skin
1. Cleanse — Everyday Cleansing Oil
Gently removes SPF and impurities without disturbing compromised skin.
2. Prep — Aura Essence
Replenishes hydration and cushions skin before treatment.
3. Calm & Repair — NeuroCalm Serum
Reduces visible stress, redness, and sensitivity while supporting skin recovery overnight.
4. Nourish — Night Comfort or RoseaCalm Cream
Deeply comforting barrier care to restore calm and resilience while you sleep.

Why Redness Happens
Redness is often a sign of a compromised skin barrier and heightened inflammatory response. Over-exfoliation, environmental stress, UV exposure, and internal stressors can all disrupt the skin’s protective systems - leaving it reactive, tight, and prone to flushing.
At NAYA, we approach redness by restoring what skin needs most: calm, barrier integrity, and cellular resilience.
