Hi, I used a hair remover cream on my upper lip to get rid of some hairs (I had used it before and haven t really had any problems). Today though as soon as I put the cream on it started to tingle and burn so i wiped it off straight away and washed the area with water. The rash doesn t seem to be going down but I really need it to. I have been putting on and taking off a lot of makeup recently because of a show so I might have irritated the skin. How can I get the rash to go down. Im really panicking. Thank you
Hello, Thanks for your query. You have got chemical burn on upper lip, as such hair removing creams are chemically rich to damage your skin. The chemicals can interact with other things you have used on your body-like soap or lotion, or with something you had on your hands at the time. Possibility of Allergic reaction can not be ruled out.Don't put anything else on the skin until it resolves. You may use vitamin E Oil to apply and get soothing effect. You can use a skin cream containing clotrimazole and gentamicin, it would avoid any infection to harm you further. For further evolution and treatment please visit skin specialist. Hope it helps. Take Care!
