Brief Answer:
Moisturizer + antihistamine...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

How long are you dealing with this problem? Are you allergic to any substance / components?

Without physical examination, it's difficult to know the cause / treatment. In this circumstance, I will suggest starting moisturizer regularly along an antihistamine drug (like cetrizine 10mg at night) for few days and see if it helps. If it doesn't regress, please visit a doctor for local examination.

Hope this helps.

Regards
