Anyone know what my itchy red patches are?

I've got them under both eyes and they're driving me crazy. Havent changed face creams or anything lately. Very red and sore. In fact my whole face feels quite dry - drier than usual. Can anyone recommend a cream to get rid of it?

I'd try E45 or aloe vera first of all, and perhaps ask a pharmacist for further advice if that doesn't help.

if it is near your eyes...i wouldnt put E45 as it can sting. Try simple eye ointment or vaseline initially to see if the dryness goes. sounds like a bit of eczema or dermatitis
