Hi, I have quite an odd problem...about a year and a half ago or so ago I got into shaving with cream and a brush (im a guy). I got on well with this combination but one day I decided to use shaving SOAP instead of cream. Being new to the whole thing I didnt really understand how I was supposed to use a soap with a brush and could not produce a lather so I started rubbing the shaving brush on my face very roughly to try and produce a lather. This resulted in both my cheeks becoming extremely red and sore, and painful to touch. I thought the redness would go away soon afterwards, and although it is quite a bit less red the redness still is apparant after all this time and my face is still very sore to touch around the cheek areas only. Everywhere else is fine. Can you suggest anything to get rid of the redness and soreness? I think the skin has been damaged or something? Considering my skin is skin very sore to touch after well over a year im quite worried. Many thanks.
