href="http://www.beautyrx.com/" target="_blank">BeautyRx Skincare</a> </strong>luncheon this week where <strong>Dr. Neal Schultz </strong>talked about his new skincare line that just hit the market and how 10 years of trial and error have created the perfect products for his clients. I learned quite a bit about what goes into his formulas to make them effective, but one bit of information surprised me. Dr. Schultz said many people who think they have sensitive skin actually don&#8217;t &#8211; having sensitive skin means having negative reactions to common skincare products at least five times a year. <strong>What to do if you actually do have sensitive skin</strong>? Click to read more.</p><p><span
id="more-199484"></span></p><p>There are tons of products out there tailored for sensitive skin. We have a rundown of the best below. One pointer from Dr. Schultz &#8211; exfoliation products on the market will only irritate delicate skin more. Make sure to talk to your dermatologist about an exfoliation routine that is right for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a

href="http://www.beautyrx.com/maximum-sunscreen-spf50" target="_blank"><strong>BeautyRx </strong>Maximum Solar Defense Sheer Cream for Face SPF 50</a> is safe for all skin types, including sensitive, and is uniquely effective immediately after application. For the body, <a

Over-cleansing can be just as damaging to sensitive skin as not cleansing at all. The key is to wash your face twice a day, at the most, with a gentle, no-frills cleanser. <a
href="http://www.cetaphil.com/Products/GentleSkinCleanser.aspx" target="_blank"><strong>Cetaphil </strong>Gentle Skin Cleanser</a>, originally formulated for dermatologists, will not strip the skin of natural oils or disturb its natural pH balance. As for the body, a milk-based cleanser is soothing on ailing skin. <a

According to Dr. Schultz, toners are necessary to prepare the skin for sunscreen and moisturizer. You have to be especially careful when choosing a formula because many contain alcohol, which can irritate sensitive skin. <a

Are your toes ready for exposure? Mine are definitely not. But if you&#8217;re in the same boat, not to worry because you can <strong>get sandal-ready feet </strong>in no time from the comfort of your own home. Check out the six easy steps below and prepare to wear your most baring shoes.</p><p><a

id="more-192573"></span></p><p><strong>1. Soak feet to soothe and prepare: </strong>Soaking feet will soften and prepare them for the pedicure ahead. Adding bath salts to warm water will soothe feet and relax tired muscles. <a
href="http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P202007&amp;categoryId=B70" target="_blank"><strong>Carol&#8217;s Daughter</strong><strong> Body Aches Bath Salts</strong></a> include essential oils of tea tree, lavender and peppermint for an aromatic and pampering experience.</p><p><a

Scrub-a-dub-dub: </strong>Before your feet can be at their very softest, you need to remove all those dead skin cells. The easiest way to do it is on the side of your tub before getting into the shower. <strong><a
href="http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P152201&amp;categoryId=C20409&amp;shouldPaginate=true#moreInfo" target="_blank">Caudalie Merlot Friction Scrub</a> </strong>uses crushed grape seeds, essential oils and sugar to buff away dry skin and make your feet glow.</p><p><a

Moisturizing is key: </strong>All of that dead skin buffing will be thrown out the window if you don&#8217;t lock in moisture with a good foot cream. Use a liberal amount from ankles to toes after showering. <a

Buff and file toenails: </strong>If you don&#8217;t want to polish toes, this can be your last step in the sandal ready feet process. File nails straight across, not round, to avoid ingrown toenails. Buff and shine nails to get that salon pedicure glow. The <a

Soften and nourish cuticles: </strong>Even if you don&#8217;t want to cut your cuticles, it&#8217;s important to moisturize and pamper them. Apply a dab to each fingernail and gently rub into your cuticles. <strong><a

Polish time: </strong>You&#8217;ve primped your feet, so now it&#8217;s time to polish those toes. Make sure to swipe a cotton ball soaked with nail polish remover over toenails to eliminate oils or lotion that could prevent polish from sticking. Start with a base coat, like <a
