Best cleansers for sensitive skin

What makes a good cleanser for sensitive skin

Cleansers with amino acids, aloe vera, and glycerin help calm stinging and redness without causing reactions. Cleansers with niacinamide and ceramides support the skin barrier to protect against new product irritation.
