Itchy face and neck

Hi there, for a few weeks now I've had an itchy neck. Thought it was my perfume but I've binned it off and it's worse now. It feels like something is prickling my neck and lower face. Tried cetraben and Aveeno but I just want to rip my face off now 🙈. Any ideas please?

Dream cream from lush is amazing at calming weird unexplained rashes.

Does your supplement contain niacin?
I took hair, skin and nail supplements for a little while and it gave me a flushed face so I stopped.
Too high amount can cause 'niacin flush' a burning and tingling in the face and chest with red flushed skin. Hope it improves for you soon.

I wouldn't immediately associate it with heat - you said it's been going on for weeks in the OP, so that suggests it's not purely heat related.

@bakermummy21 that's exactly what I've been experiencing! I'll go and check. Thank you x

@RedCarsGoFaster that's what I think. Tried to tell colleague that but she was dead set 😂

@bakermummy21 it has 9mg which is 56% of rda

Niacin is in a lot of foods too so added together would increase.
