    Exclamation What in the World!?!? Help!

    Okay, so I just woke up about 15 minutes ago, and I washed my face as usual. The, out of habit, i touched my face with my fingers, and for some reason my forehead feels very rough!
    I do not know how to best describle it, but if you look very very close in a mirror, you can see it is covered in tiny bumps that are the same color as my skin.
    It didn't look that bad, until I treid to put some pore freshener on it. It got a bit red and stung a little! I wiped it off, then put some soothing lotion on it.

    Why did this happen? I was fine yesterday!
    The only thing I could possibly think of that caused this was that on Sunday I was mowing this mans' lawn and it was really hot out, I was wearing a baseball cap to keep the hair and sweat out of my eyes. The hat got pretty wet from the sweat I also laid down in the grass a few times to cool offf, but I'm not allegic to grass.

    Please help! I'm pretty scared right now.

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
    It's not red anymore, but it's still rough to the touch. It looks kind of bumpy if you look really close. It looksw a little better, but I still want to know why it happened..

    It's probably a little reaction from the sweat, heat, maybe dust and dirt. Wash that hat. The astringents and such are mostly alcohol and may just irritate it. Try a good mild soap and water wash, pat dry with a clean face towel and a bit of unscented, hypoallergenic lotion such as Aveeno.
