Bar soap for very sensitive skin

13 replies

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 18/11/2018 18:12

Can anybody please recommend a bar soap for super-sensitive dp?

I use Nesti Dante but it's made him really sore. So then he tried Simple, but that doesn't seem to be helping either.

Really don't want to go back to bottles of shower gel (he used to like Nivea Sensitive), if we can possibly help it.

Thanks for any ideas!

Weleda soap is really gentle, I like the calendula or lavender bars. You can buy it on amazon.

weleda is good.
body shop olive soap is also nice and gentle.

I’ve heard that soap made from goats milk is excellent for sensitive skin as the milk is very close to the ph of human skin.

Moogoo

Their goats milk one is lovely, I can use it on my face without it drying my skin. I have really grumpy skin that's allergic to lots.

Waitrose sensitive. Used on my toddler who is very eczema-y. If that doesn't work-aqueous cream as wash with soap for bits and pits only?

And it's £1.20 for 4

Pears soap (used after surgery) or baby soap (johnsons)

I know it's not technically soap but the Dove micellar bar is excellent for my daughter, cleared up her rashy sore sensitive skin and is 2 for £1 in the pound shop

Asda do an unperfumed moisturising soap for sensitive skin which is excellent and v v cheap.

Wonderful. Thanks so much for these.
I think we'll start with the Waitrose Sensitive or Pears, and I might get him the Weleda and a Goats Milk one for Christmas.

We use Oliva, it's an olive oil soap, we buy it from Holland and Barratt.

applespearsbears · 18/11/2018 19:58

We use Oliva - Olive Oil Soap from Amazon on my child's eczema skin
