What Causes Swollen Eyelids And Itchy Eyelashes?

My eye balls are not red (no pink eye infection) my eyes feel as if i had been crying hard, which i haven't. I woke up yesterday with a cold sore on my upper lip. what is going on? I have not been ill recently or changed make up or eaten anything new,
