Out of the blue I have developed excema on my face, I don't know the cause. It started as a tiny patch on my nose and has spread down the left side of my nose and underneath my left eye and is now creeping around to my eyelid. The rest of my skin is fine. GP gave me hydrocortisone which didn't help noticeably, I've had better results with a Bioderma cream I found, it has really helped the skin on my nose but I look like a have a puffy red eyepatch on my eye. I feel like crying when I look in the mirror.
Concealer helps, but my foundations , which suited my normal/oily complexion are all wrong now and just emphasise the dry skin. I'm not sure what to buy now, I was thinking of Bobbi Brown balm foundation, but then I read it's highly fragranced which might irritate.
I'd be so grateful for any advice or recommendations 😊
