not sure hydrocortisone should be applied near the eye?

Aaaawww, i like it when you're all fluffy and vulnerable.

Herpes?

Cannot help you,
you must be a medical marvel obviously

So the cream makes your eyes puff up?

I would go to a doctor, you may need some A/B cream.

You can use Hydrocortisone on the eyes.
I ahve it for occasional exzema. Its only 0.5%

It means you're allergic to every single type of make-up

All of it

Do you look like this now

If you are suffering any swelling or itchiness as well, then it might be a blocked tear duct.

Could it be Blepharitis ?

Rub your eye with a gold ring

Cod I have had this.

Tried loads of eye drops

Doc thought blepheritis (sp?) but treatment for that (bathing) didn't help. In the end I decided all it could be was an allergic reaction (gp did a swab for infection)

What worked in the end:

Cold turkey on all make up round eyes
Chucked out a load of eye make up (I think Lancome stuff triggered it in the first place) and sterilised all brushes, eye lash curlers etc
Used anti-allegy eye drops for a couple of weeks

I can only use clinique stuff now - anything else makes eyes flare up. Have had eyelashes dyed so i don't need mascara all the time.

Yeah, but that could be because the tear duct is blocked so any excess fluid is draining anyway it can.

Have a read through this

You really shouldn't use hydrocortizone cream near your eyes - the skin is too thin.

think it may be blepharitis

off to the doctors with you!

I used to work in an Eye Hospital many years ago and I'm sure I used to see people who had it on one side only.

But I'm crap and gave birth to my brains and can't remember much about it now.

Cod - am away so just checking emails and Mnet at the same time. From what I hear today, it's not your eye that's been the subject of discussion, but your arse? Is that true? Wow.

Sorry about eye btw. No advice on that.

Your eyes don't always go red with it from what I remember, just watery. The main symptoms are on the eyelid.
