My wife has recently, last night, broke out into a rash on her back,chest, neck and upper legs. The only thing she starting using NEW was a skin lotion she got yesterday; Vaseline Aloe fresh moisturizing body gel with "100% natural aloe vera" Looking at the ingredients, there is a lot more in this gell too. She has taken some benedril but doesn't seem to effective. any suggestions? The ingredients in this gell are;
pentylene glycol, isoceteth-20, glycerin, aloe barbadenasis, leaf juice, cucumis sativus, fruit extract, peg-14, peg-33, peg-8, dimethicone, acrylates/c-10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, potassium hydroxide, fragrance, disodium edta, methylparraben, dmdm hydantoin...

Hi,
It seems that this is allergic reaction either of new cosmatic skin lotion or some thing in food taken at night.
Take Cetrizine or Levo-cetrizine twice a day for 2-3 days.
apply Vaseline on affected part.
for time being stop using skin cream.
Ok and take care.
