Cleanser for dry, sensitive skin prone to redness and rosacea

My mother is looking for a cleanser for her face. She usually uses a cleanser from the la Roche posay brand but she finds it expensive. She's looking for a budget cleanser for dry, sensitive, red skin.

Any recommendations?

Was going to suggest Dermalogica Ultra Calming gel. 500mls for £48. Not cheap but lasts ages.

I really like the body shop camomile cleansing butter. Also Superdrug's vit e range works a treat. Both really affordable and body shop always has offers

She could try Cerave Hydrating Cleanser but some people do still get irritated by it despite it being the gentlest thing ever. Tbh it's difficult to go budget with this skin type. The Avene Xeracalm body Cleanser is good for eczema prone skin but it's not a traditional face cleanser, so won't get things like eye makeup off. It is cheap though as the bottle is massive.

Also came here to suggest Dermalogica. Not a budget brand but does last a while and it's very good!

Try Cetaphil.

Nivea cleanser for sensitive skin is cheap, but very gentle.

I have that skin type and Simple cleansing lotion doesn't upset it. It's less than half the price of LRP Toleriane which I also found ok.

Another vote for Cetaphil here. I live in a hard water area and find I get best results wiping it off with cotton wool rather than rinsing (the instructions say you can do either).

Cetaphil gentle facial cleanser 100%, super drug have it on offer a lot!
