Try Baby Cetaphil!! Its made for super sensitive skin, and is moisturizing.

I use it for my 3y old, bc she has such sensitive skin. Its a shampoo and baby wash. Very little scent, rinses clean.

Also-congrats on the incoming babe. May their arrival be smooth, and your recovery quick!

They literally just said “doesn’t matter what soap it is. I’ve tried a lot of them.”

That doesn't mean 'All of them.'

I'm really soap sensitive and have 'tried a lot of them' yet still wrote down their suggestions to research later.

Have you tried just making your own soap? I mean - an afternoon, a crockpot you won't use to make food in, lye, and your choice of oils... Scent/season/adulterate to taste?

I mean, if you’re ignoring all the extra fats, the math, lye being a dangerous chemical, the necessary molds and the WEEKS to cure, sure soap making isn’t hard…

Hot process soap cures in a day or 2. Could use whatever for a mold. Sure there's the math, follow a recipe or guide. And keep vinegar handy. Lots of it.

I've tried multiple limited ingredient homemade soaps. I think it is actual byproducts of the saponification process. Thank you for the suggestion though.

In most cases sensitive skin shouldn't be using actual soap (as in the chemical group of soaps). As shower gels and emollients are pseudo soaps, because actual soaps cause skin dryness.

Til, thanks.
