How is the vitamin E cream for sensitive skin that easily stings and reddens? Looking for an alternative to Cerave as it’s not the cheapest and I’m almost out.
(Even unscented Sorbolene will irritate my face because apparently there’s a tiny bit of detergent/surfactant in it. Perfume is another big irritant.)
Maybe try the Goat Milk stuff? It’s supermarket cheap and doesn’t smell of either perfume or goat. There’s also an emu oil version usually right next to it on the shelf.
I might try if it’s cheap. I just stopped buying that brand years ago when I had an allergic reaction to the cleansing oil and found the soap drying.
(It was either the emulsifier or the grapeseed oil in the cleanser. Red welts all over my face. A shame because it worked really nicely other than that)
I like it for ordinary use. For really sensitive skin I might go to the chemist for pure sorbolene - this is what they gave me at Peter Mac for use on radiation therapy sensitised skin and it was just marvellous. Unscented.

Maybe! The Moo Goo stuff also resulted in welts of doom but the Aldi goats milk soap is tolerated
Both work for me when I turn into a crocodile over Winter. Sounds like you’re super sensitive, Luck!
I joke that I’m allergic to Earth
Hmm, have you tried Simple? I have a lot of sensitivities too, that's my go-to.

Yeah that might be a good idea
