How To Reduce Redness On Face After Using Bleaching Cream?
Hi, my sister used a facial bleaching cream and she applied it for 12 min. and now her cheeks are all red, what should i do? any home remedies? I have already removed it from her face and am icing her face and washing it with mild cold water to make the redness go. what should I do?

This is called irritant contact dermatitis. Tell your sister not to use the bleach in future. Also if washing with cold water does not help tell her to use an aloe Vera gel or a mild steroid for a few days. This should settle it.
