Is Your Skin Throwing Tantrums? You're Not Alone.

Redness, dryness, tightness, stinging after skincare, breakouts from “gentle” products — sensitive skin can show up in many ways. It’s not always about being born with sensitive skin either. Sometimes, your skin becomes sensitive over time due to over-exfoliation, environmental stress, or using the wrong products.

Whether you’re newly navigating sensitivity or have dealt with it for years, here’s the truth: you don’t need complicated routines, harsh treatments, or synthetic-heavy formulas.

At Kadee Botanicals, we create products with a focus on clean, gentle, effective botanicals. For sensitive skin, that means products that support your skin’s barrier — not overwhelm it.

What Sensitive Skin Really Needs

Sensitive skin is essentially skin that’s easily irritated. Its protective barrier can be thinner or compromised, which means it’s more reactive to harsh weather, allergens, or certain ingredients.

The key is to repair the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.

We’ve chosen specific Australian botanical ingredients in our formulations that have been shown to support these goals — without the common irritants found in conventional skincare.

Key Ingredients for Sensitive Skin

Organic Rosehip Oil – A Skin-Restoring Hero

Organic Rosehip Oil is often called a “dry oil” because it’s lightweight and absorbs quickly — ideal for skin that reacts poorly to heavier products.

But the real magic lies in what’s inside:

• Vitamin A (retinoic acid): Encourages skin regeneration without the harsh side effects of synthetic retinoids, making it perfect for sensitive skin.
  
  

• Vitamin C: Brightens and evens out the skin tone while supporting collagen production — essential for healing and restoring the skin barrier.
  
  

• Essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6): Deeply hydrate the skin, strengthen the lipid barrier, and reduce trans-epidermal water loss.
  
  

• Anti-inflammatory benefits: Helps calm flare-ups, redness, and irritation often seen in rosacea, eczema, and reactive skin types.
  
  

• Supports scar and pigmentation reduction: Helps fade post-inflammatory pigmentation from past breakouts or inflammation.
  
  

In short, Rosehip Oil doesn’t just hydrate — it actively heals and protects, making it one of the most effective natural ingredients for sensitive and aging skin alike. It’s a hero ingredient in Kadee Botanicals Hydrating Day & Night Cream.

Lilly Pilly – Nature’s Brightening + Barrier-Boosting Secret

Lilly Pilly is a native Australian superfruit packed with skin-beneficial compounds — and it’s especially powerful for stressed or sensitive skin.

Here's what it does:

• Rich in Vitamin C: Brightens dull, fatigued skin, supports collagen production, and helps repair UV and environmental damage.
  
  

• Natural astringent: Gently tones and refines pores without alcohol, making it ideal for sensitive skin that reacts to synthetic toners.
  
  

• Ellagic acid (a polyphenol antioxidant): Known for its anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce skin reactivity and redness.
  
  

• Promotes skin cell turnover: Encourages fresher, healthier-looking skin by supporting the skin's natural renewal cycle — but without irritation.
  
  

• Protects against environmental stress: Acts like a natural shield against pollution and UV damage, reducing premature aging and flare-ups.
  
  

What makes Lilly Pilly unique is its dual action — it strengthens the skin barrier and also brightens the complexion. That’s rare in skincare for sensitive skin, where many brightening agents can be too aggressive.  Lilly Pilly is found in both Kadee Botanicals Hydrating Day & Night Cream and Kadee Botanicals Eye Cream.

Jojoba Oil – The Natural Skin Balancer

Jojoba Oil is technically a wax ester rather than an oil, which makes it biomimetic — meaning it closely resembles your skin’s own natural sebum.

Why that matters for sensitive skin:

• Balances oil production: Signals the skin to produce less oil, helping both dry and oily sensitive types find equilibrium.
  
  

• Non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic: Won’t clog pores or cause reactions — ideal for inflamed, acne-prone, or eczema-affected skin.
  
  

• Rich in Vitamin E and B-complex vitamins: Support skin repair and cellular regeneration.
  
  

• Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial: Helps calm skin conditions like rosacea, psoriasis, and acne.
  
  

• Locks in moisture: Forms a breathable barrier that prevents water loss without suffocating the skin.
  
  

Jojoba is a go-to for sensitive skin because it protects, heals, and regulates — all without disruption. Jojoba oil is the hard worker in Kadee Botanicals Hydrating Day & Night Cream and Kadee Botanicals Eye Cream.

Kakadu Plum – The Brightening Skin Defender

Grown in the untouched regions of Northern Australia, Kakadu Plum holds the title of the world’s richest source of natural Vitamin C — up to 100x more than oranges.

Here’s why that’s a game-changer for sensitive skin:

• Boosts collagen production: Strengthens the skin barrier, improving elasticity and reducing sensitivity over time.
  
  

• Brightens dull or uneven tone: Gently fades hyperpigmentation and sun damage without irritation — unlike harsher Vitamin C serums.
  
  

• Powerful antioxidant: Protects against free radicals and environmental aggressors that can trigger redness and flare-ups.
  
  

• Supports wound healing: Naturally antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, it helps soothe post-inflammatory pigmentation and calm reactive breakouts.
  
  

Unlike synthetic Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), Kakadu Plum is gentle yet effective — delivering glow without aggravation. Australian Kakadu Plum is the Vitamin C powerful boost of antioxidants in Kadee Botanicals Hydrating Day & Night Cream and Kadee Botanicals Eye Cream.

Quandong – The Skin-Soothing Superfruit

Quandong, also known as the Australian desert peach, is another native botanical celebrated for its restorative and protective benefits.

Here’s what it offers sensitive skin:

• High in Vitamin E and Rutin: A rare bioflavonoid that helps reduce inflammation and strengthen capillaries — perfect for calming redness and broken vessels.
  
  

• Natural AHA-like properties: Gently exfoliates without scrubbing or irritation, promoting brighter, smoother skin.
  
  

• Zinc and magnesium: Support cell repair and reduce irritation, especially for those with acne-prone sensitive skin.
  
  

• Antimicrobial benefits: Helps protect against bacterial imbalances without the need for alcohol or harsh preservatives.
  
  

Quandong is ideal for skin that’s tired, inflamed, or over-exfoliated — it helps restore without stripping.  Australian Quandong is the quiet achiever in Kadee Botanicals Hydrating Day & Night Cream and Kadee Botanicals Eye Cream.

Australian Lavender – The Natural Calmer

Unlike mass-produced lavender often used in perfumery, Australian Lavender oil is known for its superior purity and therapeutic potency.

Here’s what makes it essential for sensitive skin:

• Anti-inflammatory and soothing: Reduces redness, calms itchiness, and supports the healing of eczema and dermatitis.
  
  

• Antimicrobial: Helps maintain a healthy skin microbiome — key for sensitive and acne-prone skin types.
  
  

• Natural stress reducer: The calming scent has proven aromatherapy benefits, lowering cortisol (the stress hormone) that can trigger flare-ups.
  
  

• Promotes sleep and recovery: Especially useful in nighttime routines to help skin reset and repair.
  
  

Used in moderation and in the right concentrations, lavender oil brings a sense of calm to both skin and mind. Just the right touch of calming lavender is found in Kadee Botanicals Hydrating Day & Night Cream and Kadee Botanicals Eye Cream.
