Sensitive neck and décolletage

For the past week I've had some kind of skin flare up in this area and wandered if anyone had experienced the same. I've slapped on some sudocrem but it's not really helping and it's starting to look a bit red and blotchy and unsightly! Anyone else had this - nothing seems to be causing it (fabrics etc)

i had this when i first started using retinol A. have you been using new creams.

I get this from perfume. I never used to. But if I forget & spray on my neck / décolletage it gets so itchy, red & sore. Could it be that?

Actually I have extended my retinol use to that area so it might be that! Will desist and might try aveeno it is very red and angry looking

I get red itchy blotches; sometimes for no apparent reason and sometimes if I've too many layers on and have overheated. Taking an antihistamine when it's flared up works for me - perhaps something to consider if it's still bad after laying off on the retinol?

I get red blotchy irritated skin from time to time. Hydrocortisone cream sorts it out quickly. Nothing else works on these patches.
