I get excema flare ups every now and again, it's not as bad as when I was younger and it's usually just more like very dry skin than anything now.
I got this patch on my face just under my right eye after I burnt the skin there frying an egg (dopey, I know :doh:!) but it goes red and dry now and again then calms down again and stays ok as long as I moisturise.
It's now flared up, I think maybe due to the stress I've been under but I can't get rid of it this time. I've used every moisturiser I have, hydrocortisone cream, that oil stuff that gets rid of scars, coconut moisturiser, not bought coconut oil yet though which I want to get.
I want rid NOW, everyone keeps asking 'oh god, what's wrong with your face' and it's driving me bonkers! I can cover it up with make-up but I'm not the sort who carrys make-up around, I just don't care that much for my personal appearence plus I doubt putting makeup on all the time won't help.
I also don't think the air con in work is helping.
Has anyone got any ideas? Pleaseeee :blush:
