PLEASE READ ME!! DESPERATE😭

Hi -

Trying to find something to soothe my on fire face. Almost a week ago, the skin on my face started to randomly burn badly. It only burns on my cheek area/around my mouth. My lips are also super chapped too.

I use Cerave hydrating cleanser followed by cetaphil hydrating face lotion for AM/PM. I recently switched from cetaphil to vanicream facial lotion in terms of moisturizing as I read positive reviews on this sub about it and I thought it would help. I haven’t noticed a difference since I’ve only used it once so far.

I have no idea what’s going on with my face or what to do. It’s so uncomfortable it’s hard to even sleep. The only thing I’ve changed about my routine is splashing my face with cold water throughout the day. As innocent as that is I’m wondering if I overdid it as I would do it 3-4 times a day and would not moisturize after. I also live in a Cold climate so I’m not sure if that amplifies things too.

I’ll take anyyyy advice as I’m at my breaking point😭 This is the most uncomfortable feeling I’ve felt in my life.

Got a similar conditioned after using yellow pill oil which has not healed for over 3 years now. Mine is spread across the entire face and is characterized by a mild burning sensation which used to become worse in the cold. It is caused by a yeast cause when I use anti fungal the itching reduces. I no longer use anything apart from a soap. Any cream I put on my face causes a yeast overgrowth.
