Best bar soap for sensitive skin dermatologist recommended

Avoid using harsh soaps that dry the skin. Recommended soaps are Dove, Olay and Basis. Even better than soap are skin cleansers such as Cetaphil Skin Cleanser, CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser and Aquanil Cleanser.

We suggest that people with sensitive skin begin with soaps that contain no essential oils. Soaps like the Goat Milk Oatmeal, Carrot & Honey, Milk & Honey Baby Soap, Chamomile Calendula Soap. Some people have also found the Sea Buckthorn and Neem and Tea Tree soaps to be very helpful.

Examples of mild, gentle soaps include Dove® sensitive skin bar, Cetaphil Cleansing Lotion®, Aveenobar®, Purpose Soap®, Basis®, and Oil of Olay Cleansing bar®. Highly fragranced soap and antibacterial soaps are the most irritating and should be avoided.
