The all-time best for my sensitive skin is Johnson & Johnson's Purpose. I have been able to use it under any condition, following any procedure, etc. My derm and most skin spas I have gone to have said it is hard to beat. I also like L'Occtane foaming cleansers.

Hi! No is the clean sensitive line. They have a few other cleansing products but my favourite are those too. I don´t like their Eyes and Face Dissolver from the same line. Although it doesn´t irritate my skin i find it very oily.

Logona Free Cleansing Milk

Formulated for highly sensitive, easily irritated skin.

Fragrance free, organic, rinses off easily and completely -no residue!
Contains alcohol but you won’t even notice.
It’s not stripping at all and won’t dry out your skin.

It’s a milk. So it doesn’t take off waterproof sunscreen or other hardcore gluey stuff.

As a morning cleanser you can use it like a face wash on dampened skin.
At night (for deeper cleansing action) you can take it off with moistened cotton pads and then rinse with water.
For a quick and superficial morning cleanse you can use it on wet skin (instead of dampened skin).

It’s a simple, basic and highly effective cleanser (as a cleanser is meant to be). No exciting, agitating ingredients. Your skin will appreciate it.

BTW, I think it’s best is to leave sensitive skin alone as much as possible and only cleanse deeply when it is really necessary.

A great clay mask for sensitive skin would be Dr Hauschka clay mask.
Keep it on for 5 minutes and make sure it stays wet. Rinses off very easily without any irritation.

I just received a sample of Azulene Body soap from Mario Badescu!
It was not harsh on sensitive skin and had a "soap" neutral smell!
kind of neat that the body wash is naturally blue from the plants!

http://mariobadescu.com/azulene-body-soap

benefits:
This gentle cleanser is formulated for dry, sensitive skin. Azulene is an anti- inflammatory ingredient derived from Chamomile that helps to soothe irritated skin. Seamollient, a mineral rich seawater ingredient helps to nourish the skin as you cleanse.

How to Use: Massage on wet skin with a soft cloth or sponge using a gentle touch on erupted skin. Rinse thoroughly.

Ingredients: Ammonium Laureth Sulfate,Deionized Water,Glycerin,Sodium Chloride, Azulene, Seamollient,Herbal Extract


8oz. - $8.00

I plan on getting this in the future.

I have used Cetaphil cleanser for ages but recently have started using the SkinBiology Gentle Clean bar and like it much better. It comes in a liquid or a bar. Really good for sensitive skin and cleanses well without stripping the skin. I will definitely be repurchasing this.

Hi

Try olay gentle foaming face wash. It cleanses gently without over drying and specially formulated for sensitive skin.

How to use

Wet hands and face. Dispense product into hand. Work into a foamy lather. Massage gently onto face and neck. Rinse off with warm water. Gentle enough to use every time you cleanse.

Hope this helps you

Alexes, why don't you contact CeraVe and ask for samples of their cleanser? I do find that even as sensitive as my skin is, I can use this. I know samples are often available of it at the dermatologists, so perhaps they offer them through their customer service as well (but I don't know). It runs around 12 a bottle.

I use Babor's mild cleanser and Rose Toner. They have a line for sensitive skin. Also Caudalie has a nice cleanser for sensitive skin. Bioelements have nice fragrance free products. I always come back to Babor. I found that using faceclothes, towels, etc. with fabric softeners and certain detergents made my face itch and peel. Especially in hotels where they use bleach on everything!

My only suggestion is that if your skin is that sensitive to avoid all chemical products. If you look at the so called drug store brands they all have damaging chemicals like Sodium Laurel Sulfate, and other such toxic chemicals. I too can have VERY reactive skin, and at such times I find there are FEW products that I can actually use. Although one of the most gentle and hydrating cleansers is Sophyto's gentle cleanser. It is also 100% organic and fabulous!!! There is no scent and it does not foam up, although it cleans well enough. When your skin is ultra sensitive you don't want a high foaming cleanser, so this one fits the bill...
