I love CeraVe products for my sensitive skin. I use Avene Retrinal 0.05/ Avene Physiolift. But as soon as i´ve emptied it and the CeraVe one is available in Europe i will put it on my shopping list for sure.
I've actually had the opposite happen to me. Started with a 1% retinol solution but my skin did not feel sensitive. No tingling or redness. Don't know why......
Yeah, I know your pain 
retinol may cause sensitivity, redness, and peeling, and for those with sensitive skin, these side effects can sometimes be unbearable. You can try soothing skin with a honey mask, coconut oil, essential oils, chamomile, green tea or aloe vera.

I love love love youth to the people retinal (Vs retinol). Very good for sensitive skin and I did have a bit of a purge at first but no reaction.
I have sensitive skin, my dermatologist said to buffer i. Put a light cream underneath and then put a retinol and then cream to make you skin "sandwich"
