I'm really tired of trying different drugstore cleansers and finding that my skin is too sensitive and it swells and it turns red and I can't even touch my face right now it hurts I'm looking for a really good cleanser that won't irritate my face. Not a makeup remover but a cleanser I've tried literally every single drugstore brand you see in Walmart or CVS.

If your face is reacting to drugstore products, try some high end ones! Clinique has a few different cleansers and moisturizers... All very good! However, you can't find a cleansers that works for, try going to a dermatologists. They can give you some recommendations :)

I have extremely sensitive skin, and I've been using Aveeno's foaming facial cleanser, and it is honestly so gentle and wonderful. Aveeno seems to have less harsh ingredients than the ones I've tried from Neutrogena or Clean & Clear, however I could be wrong. I'd recommend going to a dermatologist. Putting yourself through the pain of an allergic reaction is not something you should have to deal with. A dermatologist is the best person to ask. Good luck!

Pull out the ingredients lists of ALL the products that your skin has had a reaction to.
Write down every ingredient they have in common.
Buy something that does NOT contain that ingredient (or those ingredients if they have more than one item in common).

Cetaphil is generally recommended for sensitive skin. It is hypoallergenic and fragrance free, so it might be worth trying. Definitely see a dermatologist though to find out what's going on to cause the sensitivity.

Oh and the cost of a dermatology appointment may be covered by your health insurance, call your provider and ask. Some insurances require a referral from a family doctor before you can see a specialist (generally HMOs require this). Although, if you live outside of the USA this could all be completely different.

I use Bellaboo, it's marketed towards teenagers but it's organic and natural and I have super sensitive skin and it's not bothered by it at all. I love the stuff

MAKE YOUR OWN!!
Seriously you will save a TON of money and they are great for the planet. There are lots of recipes out there involving sugars, salts, and different types of hydrating oils.

If you do the homemade route, make sure you test ingredients VERY carefully. Some recipes call for cinnamon (which can be VERY irritating) or certain essential oils (which can cause reactions in some people). Do a test patch first before slathering something all over your face--really that's advice that applies to pretty much everything, not just homemade products.

Yeah aveeno is probably your best bet and if that doesn't work then yes go see a dermatologist asap.

I have very sensitive skin also and had the same issue as you, I went to MAC after trying all the drug store stuff and I love there cream wash it's amazing. Cost round $20 but last a long time well worth the money.
