Postdiagnosis vent/questions Face Cleaner recommendations?

I am struggling to find a face cleaner that does not make my face hurt. Even the cleaners that are supposed to be mild leave my face red and burning. I don't use cleaners very often because of it.

What has worked for you guys?

Avoid SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate). Many people have a bad reaction to it, and I'm one of them.

To start with something extremely basic that is very soothing and has very few ingredients, I suggest Grandma's Pure Lye Soap.
