How Do I Get Rid Of Itchy Allergic Rashes On My Face?
Hi there, I made the mistake of using an expired collagen facemask on my face. I had a terrible allergic reaction which started with a rash and now my skin has a bumby extremely dry barrier, I have tried everything :( can you give me an idea of how to calm this dry skin and clear this up?

Hi,
If you suspect that the allergic rash is due to collagen mask, you should avoid using the mask strictly.
If you have itching, you can take an antihistamine tablet. Dry skin can be treated with application of emollient creams such as Cetaphil DAM moisturizing cream.
For the management of rash, I request you to consult your Dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
