Why does my face sting after moisturizing?
HiAs the others have pointed out, you may be allergic to one or many ingredients in your moisturizer. Most allergic skin reactions start out with the skin feeling noticeably warm and itchy and getting red. Do not apply any moisturizer with AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids for example glycolic acid, lactic acid etc) or retinols directly on damp skin. That will irritate your skin further.However, my personal take on this is that you have probably damaged your skin barrier. (the lipid barrier that protects our skin from external irritants and curbs trans-epidermal water loss). If your are washing your face too often with harsh soapy cleansers and exfoliating too much, you may want to stop it. Wash your skin with a mild, pH balanced face wash and make sure the temperature of the water is comfortably lukewarm…you can splash your face once or twice with cold water after your have removed the face wash. Don’t scrub or rub your face to dry it. Pat it very gently with a soft microfiber cloth and leave it a bit damp. Stop using all actives for at least 3 months. Go very basic and simple with your skin care. One skincare step that may change the game for you is to add a pH balancing hydrating toner (not an astringent…a HYDRATING TONER) after you wash your face and before applying any serum or creams. You can do two layers of such a toner…first, swipe gently with a cotton pad to remove any residues and the second layer patted into your skin with your clean (obviously!) palms.Coming to ingredients you should be on the lookout for in your products (at least during this restorative/skin barrier healing phase)…try products that feature skin barrier restoring workhorses like - ceramides, cholesterol (yes!), panthenol, Centella asiatica, madecassoside (derived from centella asiatica), fatty acids, phospholipids like Phytosphingosine, hyaluronic acid, chamomile extract, restorative and healing oils like evening primrose oil, baobab oil etc. The Cerave cream that comes in a white tub can be a good basic restorative moisturizer for you. And don’t rub anything into your skin…gentle pats, or tapping with fingers should be enough.I hope you are using a good sunscreen everyday.Repair your skin barrier. That will resolve a lot of issues for you.
Why am I getting sudden needle prick like headaches on the back of my head for few seconds?
“Why am I getting sudden needle prick like headaches on the back of my head for few seconds?”Since many days I feel sudden needle prick like sharp headaches on the back of my head mostly on the left.Since few days again, I'm experiencing this randomly all over the head. And today I even felt this pain on my eyebrows.The pains at the left back of your head might be Occipital neuralgia. No idea what’s going on with the random discomforts and eyebrow pain.TL;DR: A visit to a Neurologist is strongly advised. .
Is it normal for my skin to tingle/itch after putting raw aloe vera on it?
Thanks for the A2A! Yes, its’s normal for your skin to tingle/itch a little bit after applying raw aloe, especially if you have just cleansed your face which is a sensitive area. Raw aloe would also be the strongest form, you may want to use a moisturizer with aloe in it if your skin is sensitive.
Should I leave Clindamycin Phosphate gel to dry on my face after applying it or should I wash it off?
Yes that is true. Every doctor would say that.See soul purpose of this ointment is to kill germs on your pimples from spreading which is quite important.I know it is quite difficult to maintain a routine but please do exactly how you are told.Apply it after washing your face in the morning near around 9. Let it dry obviously.Next time wash your face at 5pm and then apply it again.If you have been asked to apply benxoyl peroxide or adaplene gel at night then honey wash your face again at 9pm and then apply it.So yes you have to wash your face thrice a day.But you have to do it daily if you want to be cured.
Shaking when I go to bed?
Happens in my house but I was told our house is built over a natural stream bed and the moving water creates miniature vibrations. Makes sense since our well is next to the house. Or you could stop putting the quarters in the magic fingers bed!
Should i Start Shaving My Legs?
I was in the EXACT same position as you! I'm fourteen right now and i just started shaving in june. i started because since late 7th grde the hairs where still blonde, but they started sticking up more and ppl noticed them and like everyone i knew had been shaving since like 5th or 6th grde so it was kinda embarrassing when they noticed :/ but i didnt want to shave b/c i thought it would be a huge hassle. but it turns out its not and i feel much better wearing bathing suits and shorts and stuff. so i'd say, if you're comfortable, go ahead!
