Go with the Cetaphil Cleanser> Cetaphil moisturizer combo. It's been great for me, and I'm on day 93

Whatever you get, dont even think about getting anything from neutrogena's Visibly Even line! The moisturizer is 90% water and 10% perfume (atleast it seems like it :S ).

and id reccomend pretty much any moisturizer from olay. I had one that was specifically for sensitive skin. Forgot its name but it was a good sized bottle for a great price. Very mild and great moisturizing!

I second vote for the Aveeno ultra calming spf 15 lotion... It's great and goes on awesome.

if you don't like that greasy feel, try ddf ultra lite moistuzing dew. it is about $36 at sephora. also, i like neutrogena for sensitive skin. oil free, fragrance fee. it is a bit more emollient. it's about $15, i think.

I third the aveeno ultra calming SPF 15...i'm on month 4 and have to say that i've had very minimal dryness compared to what most other people get. It goes on thick, but not too greasy feeling, and i usually only apply it once in the morning and once before i go to bed. but it depends on the person adn their skin type as well, try a couple and see what works best for you!

Also, i know you said cetaphil didn't work for you when you tried it a while ago, but your skin is going to be completely different through your course. Trust me, cetaphil gentle cleanser is a savior for tane people and i reccommend it to you when the dryness starts to set in. Every other cleanser is just too harsh on the already super sensitive skin.

Good luck!
