Oh the joy!

THE BEST THING I'VE FOUND for my super-ultra sensitive skin is the California Baby line.
This Calming lotion, is a fantastic, scent-free moisturizer that soothes my irritable skin.

A few years ago I came down with something called 'perioral dermatitis.' eeewwww! Mysterious dermatitis in the soft skin between the corners of your mouth and your nose and on your chin-- red, itchy, flaky, bumpy, swelly, yuk! Nobody knows quite WHY you get this but most think it's sodium lauryl/laureth sulfate (the foaming agents in pretty much all commercial soaps, washes, cleansers and toothpastes)-- In any case, it's got something to do with the chemical crap in products (even several of the 'green' brands have SLS, just look for a toothpaste without it).
A trip to the dermatologist and six weeks of pharmaceuticals cleared it up but the dr. said it could recur fairly easily now that my skin was 'sensitized'. CA Baby is ultra clean and gentle, keeps me calm.
