I just want to know that im not alone. Most of ny flare ups are in my hands or on or around my mouth. And my cheeks. My flare ups are the weepy blisters and scaly dryness. Its the most painful/annoying thing ever! When I have flare ups on my face I just hide. And when i cant hide. I feel like everyone is staring or judging me. What sort of things do you use to calm these flare ups?

I have discovered a olive oil soap at health food store. All it is is olive oil!. I use only on my face. Never burns, leaves my skin soft and smooth free of flaking. Plus I only use Cold water on my face. No more hot or warm water on my face.
I have the same flares, so you are not alone. π I have had these flares since childhood. Been through All the testing. Food, Chemicals ect.. for me i have flares around my mouth, my hands, on my scalp, i have always used the All Free & Clear laundry soap and dryer sheets. Also just lately started using Goat Milk soap. Oats and honey from The Bend Soap Company. It has really helped. Also no creams or any make up I just put Vaseline on after a shower. Much better results. Hope this helps you know you are not alone. Hugs π
I've started getting that as well. At first I thought it was from corn on the cob, but the last time, I had uncured hot dogs, baked beans and pickles. I'm going to avoid the hot dogs and see if that was it. I already avoid gluten and cow dairy.
I ordered some lotion & soap from Bend Soap Company, and really liked it.
I am considering ordering some more products from them as well, instead of buying all of these other treatments advertised.
I avoid gluten and dairy for autoimmune issues in general. It has REALLY helped with my asthma, but skin stuff seems to be the most stubborn. π
