Neutrogena Wave?

Heya all.:wave:

Has anyone used the Neutrogena Wave? How have you found it?

My skin is really sensitive and everything is making it red and sore at the moment and I can't find anything that will sort my skin out/stop it from being red but I was wondering if the Wave is suitable for such sensitive skin.

I've tried so many different facial products - Simple, Tea Tree, Witch, Own brands, Garnier etc and still get the redness. :(

    If it's like that you need to watch what you're using on it anyway.

    Never tried neutrogena wave but my skin is prone to dryness and redness at times due to being sensitive and the best cleanser I've ever found for it is Clarins gentle cleanser with alpine herbs,followed by their toner for dry to normal skin.

    I'd suggest either going to a skincare counter and getting a consultation or lay off certain products for a while and let your skin heal (use good creams designed for combatting it)

    Thought I'd add,mild products cn help when the skin has settled a bit..mine did when I started using the clarins,it's soothing on the skin too

    The wave isn't really sensitive skin friendly, I found it was really drying and it brought me out in a rash.
