Dont do that at all, the sun will only dry out your skin and irritate it more. Not to mention the damage it does to your skin. It amazes me that people still suntan on purpose Rolling Eyes

have you tried cortizone cream? I have the same sort of thing on my neck and it helps.

Re: Skin Problem
Tendency for dry skin and eczema can also cause this changes. Homeopathic medicine has good remedies like sulph, bryonia, alumina, sepia, petroleum, sarsaparilla etc. To help you get rid of the reddishness, itching etc. Due to the same apart from preventing its recurrence.

I have had the same thing but I didn't have it on my face it was on neck and it looked bad.

People asked me if my boyfriend hits me or if I fell down the stairs...I told them that 1. I don't have a boyfriend 2. I didn't fell down.

What I did was put lotion on it...The lotion that I used was vasaline intensive care dry skin(or something along that line).

Yah whatever you do, do not expose your face to the sun or sun lamps, they do not work it will dry out that area even more.

When I had the same thing on my neck (the rash) it took about a month to get rid of. Too, dont the month scare you, people are different in healing.

I hope it goes away,
