Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per you query you have symptoms of dry skin on the face which is pointing towards a condition known as photo-allergic dermatitis.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to avoid excessive exposure to sunlight. If you will go outside cover your face with little wet cloth. You should abroad spectrum sunscreen such as TANCARE to face rich in SPF 30. Apply cream containing Trentoin on face. Apply vitamin C serum at night. You should wash your face with cold water. You should avoid application of excessive cosmetics on face and apply cold compresses to your face. You should avoid itchiness on these rashes. If condition doesn't improve in a week or two you should then consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe steroid ointment and retinoids. You can go for chemical peeling as well.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
