Allergic reaction? What to do?

[ghhjgggg]

I think I am having an allergic reaction to a new foundation. What is the best way to clear up. Obviously I will stop using the product but can i clear it up quickly? My skin feels rough with tiny bumps all over.

Hydrocortisone cream from the drugstore. Use morning and night and you should see improvement. Don't give up! But do sample before buying.

Benadryl and cold compress, aloe, Manuka honey!!!

The saddest part is that it was my first really big foundation purchase. Great match, fantastic feeling and coverage. So close... 😫

@ghhjgggg if hives, zyrtec- the others aren't made for that. Cool compresses and baby the skin.

Thanks will give it a try!

Two fantastic ideas, thanks to you both!

Hi @ghhjgggg - Oh no! That's awful! I highly recommend using a cortisone cream that you can just buy at the drug store. Just apply to the rough/splotchy areas until your skin settles down.

I'd try a Benadryl or Claratin.  They're made for allergies.  If it persists though, speak to a pharmacist or doctor @ghhjgggg
