I cannot say for sure it started with a BB cream, but I am leaning towards thinking it started with that because I had started using it shortly before. (I stopped using it as soon as the problems started.)
My face, especially my cheeks and jaw and neck, but a little on my forehead started itching and burning. When this started for the first few days I had burning and bumps and itching. I tried to put Noxema on my skin and then even aloe with lidocaine.
Now - a few days later - it is like my skin is tight and has a weird rough coating type appearance and feeling; especially bad when I got out the shower, across both cheeks. I had a couple bad blackheads along my cheek/chin. My nose and lower neck feel more normal.
I have an appointment for the doctor. But I have never had anything like this.
Has anyone heard of something like this? (I saw somewhere else that people have had allergic reactions to some bb creams - it turns out this one - Olay is mostly a sunscreen though it has some color.)
