    Default My face hurts!

    Oh lord....this blows.

    I have scaly, peeling dry skin on my face right now. My Clean n' Clear mosturizer didn't work, Vaseline Intensive Care doesn't work (it just stings really bad).....nothing is working and I'm scared to try carmex or any body lotion because I have a really bad complexion.

    Basically, I need a killer facial moisturizer that won't cause acne on scaly, peeling (but still oily...hmmm) skin. Price is no deterrent at this point, I'm desperate and in pain.

    I love Alba products. They're all natural and are gentle. You might also want to try Rachell Perry.

    There's one I use at night that really takes out the redness in my breakouts but never causes any more zits/blocked pores, yet it's still on and greasy (like, moisturizer greasy, not oily face greasy) in the morning when I go to wash my face. My skin has peeled from a really bad tanning bed burn before and it didn't irritate it or sting at all. You can get it online here:



    You might want to see if they have another moisturizer you think would work better, I love all their products I've tried. Good luck sweetie!

    Does it feel like its weeping? I used this stuff a few winters ago - its like safe for your face body butter thick.

    Were you out in cold wind or cold wet wind? Could be chill blains and it will be sore and tender until it heals if that is the case.

    Out in cold wind?! I live on the prairies ha ha! I have windburn on my neck for sure that's all hard and dry and scaley...it's so bad that the skin doesn't really have feeling anymore. It doesn't hurt or anything, it feels almost like a huge callous.

    My face hasn't gotten that bad yet because it still stings really badly but it's probably windburn combined with winter-dry skin. But I'm still oily and majorly acne-prone. I have oily scales....yuck. If it's windburn should I go see a doctor? Maybe medicated cream is in order. Do you think Goldbond would help? I used to use it a lot when I would get chemical burns/rashes at work.

    Try Lipikar from La Roche-posay they sell it at shoppers drug mart. It costs about twenty bucks. I have acne prone skin and this doesnt bother it. The people who work in the make-up section will tell you which lotion will work best.

    Okay, I know I'm mean, but the 5th grader in me wanted to post something immature.

    "My face hurts!" "Well, it's killing me"

    Damnit i wanted to say that shit too!! haha

    I dont have super sensitive skin so I'm not sure if this would work with someone that does have it, but when ever I got horrible dry skin that basically felt like my chapped lips took over my face or something, I used bagbalm all over at night. Shit was healed up in 3 days completely. I swear by that stuff man.

    But again unless I'm on birthcontrol I don't get breakouts. or if i take prenatals..which is odd. but i've been on em' since Nov and umm like one tiny pimple since..

    I should start using lotion nightly. I never have..i'll prob regret that shit soon ...

    I don't think that's it. There's no red lesions or blisters, it's just really scaly and dry....normal colored though. I'm going to hit up Shoppers tomorrow for a cream. I can't order anything from online because I truly think I'll die if I have to wait two weeks for it to get here (stupid customs).
