Hello there,
You seem to be having oedema of the face which can be due to-
1) Allergic reaction to any beauty products you may be using.
2) Adverse effect of some medication that you are taking
3) Reduced protein in your blood leading to accumulation of fluid in your face.

A Liver function test of blood alongwith a TLC and DLC would help us establish if this is due to the above conditions.

Hope this helps,
Any further queries can be addressed to me.
