Why Some People Choose Fragrance Free Skincare During Treatment

During times of illness or medical treatment, many people notice their skin behaves differently.

It may feel drier, more reactive, or simply more sensitive than usual. Scalp sensitivity can increase. Products that once felt fine may suddenly feel too strong or overwhelming. For some, this is when simplicity becomes important.

Over the years, we’ve heard from customers who choose fragrance free soap and essential oil free skincare during these periods — not because fragrance is “bad”, but because reducing variables can feel reassuring when everything else feels uncertain.

When Skin Feels More Sensitive

Stress, hormonal shifts, and medical treatments can all affect the skin barrier. While every person’s experience is different, it’s common to prefer products with shorter ingredient lists and no added scent.

Choosing soap for sensitive skin often means:

• No added fragrance

• No essential oils

• Minimal ingredients

• A calm, predictable routine

Sometimes that predictability matters more than anything.

Fragrance Free Hair & Scalp Care

The scalp can also feel delicate during treatment. A fragrance free shampoo bar made with simple cleansing ingredients may feel gentler than heavily scented alternatives.

Again, there are no guarantees — just a preference for keeping things uncomplicated.

Gentle Moisture Without Overwhelm

Dryness is another common concern when the body is under strain. A gentle moisturiser bar or cleansing oil made without fragrance or essential oils can help support the skin’s natural barrier while keeping the routine simple.

Many customers searching for unscented skincare tell us the same thing — they aren’t looking for something dramatic. They just want calm, dependable products that don’t add extra stimulation.
