Hmmm, sounds like you should get someone to squirt breastmilk in it. It's sterile you know and anit bacterial. Works wonders for conjunctivitis

you might not have been allergic in the past but that doesn't mean you will never be prone to allergies

sympathy , my dh gets this and doesn't get much relief from the doctor's prescriptions

I've found Kamillosan pretty good for this sort of thing. Had red dry sore eyelids after DS1.

My hunch is that unfortunately you have become sensitised to something in your mascara or eye make-up cod
It happens even after years of happy itch-free usage.

No idea what it was really - kind of put it down to baby wipes.. having the wipe stuff on my hands and then wiping tired eyes or using a wipe after a wet only nappy change to clean my hands then rubbing my eyes. Def sounds like an allergy though. Only no make up #and no other products will really sort it.
