I am not someone who suffers from allergies, but I have recently been suffering from very sensitive skin. It's a little odd as it's not itchy as such, but if I so much as lightly touch my skin it becomes itchy and if I scratch again lightly I get big red lumps that are uber itchy. It's amazing how annoying it is.
My dh and dd1 have sensitive skin so I don't change my washing powder and don't use fabric conditioner. I haven't changed anything I do to my skin other than a new facial moisturiser. Even though my face isn't affected I stopped using the new moisturiser and still no change.
What could it be and how do I deal with it? I took piriton yesterday, but was very sleepy on it.
