18 month old scratching their face

Our little one has got into a cycle of getting frustrated when they don't get their own way and then immediately scratching their face with their nails over the last 3 weeks. This has caused them horrible scratches around eyes and cheeks which they sometimes open up with another tantrum. We have clipped nails very short and are trying to react calmly to stop them when they do this (instead of a big reaction , fueling this as a good tactic). We think its probably due to frustration with speaking a bit but not enough to express themselves. Any tips to help us please?!!
