I get rashes on my face after use of any skincare product—CeraVe included: cleansers, lotions, sunscreens (physical or chemical), etc. It doesn’t happen after the first use typically, but after a few days of application. The skin on mostly my cheeks becomes red and slightly puffy, as well as a little hot to the touch. I got patch testing for allergies and I only reacted to one ingredient, which isn’t even in most of the products I have tried in the past. I was wondering if this is something you guys have too because of our skin sensitivity from EDS. I considered it was possibly a histamine reaction, but I don’t really have many symptoms at all that would signify me having MCAS. Of course, I’m consulting my doctor, but wondering if anyone has had similar experiences.
