I Am Suffering From Dry Red Inflamed Skin. Taking Hydrc And I Dont Have Any Allergy To My Makeup
hi there i have suffered from dry red inflamed skin under my eyes for about a month. I used hydrocortesoine cream and coconut oil 24/7 lastweek, and within 2 days the dry skin flaked off and skin was normal again. 2 days after i put on my usual make up and the flareness came up again and now i am back to square one. This make up has been used all my life and i am thinkng that maybe 2 days after recovery was not enough time and the skin was still vulnerable as i dont have an allergy to my makeup~? Please could you advise. Also i am using Hydrc. and coconut oil again this week to get it back to normal like last week but this time its taking a bit longerr. However everyday i get a black sock and gently swipe it over the skin to take off dead flaked skin. Is it ok to do this?

hi
you have dry and sensitive skin over that area .
you have contact dermatitis.
it is possible that the make make up can cause you this problem,because make up remain the same but your skin never rremain sme over period of time.
every time you develop it ,it take longer time to treat.
dont wipe out that scab,they will come out its own
stop your make up.
continue hydrc and oil
