I've had allergic reactions to skincare products before. Taking an antihistamine like benadryl helps.

i will try that out, thank you so much for your reply

NP! One time I tried a mandelic peel and my face turned red and puffed up like a chipmunk. Then benadryl helped.

Hi!

I was prescribed duac by my doctor and have been using it for 20 days now with no problem other than slight redness and dry/ flaky skin.

My regime is as follows:

Use cetaphil cleanser an hour before i apply duac, go to sleep and then wash of what's left.

However yesterday i bought the cetaphil moisterizing cream and took a day off duac and just used the cream to help with the dryness from duac.

This morning I woke up with extremely red and blotchy skin all over my face, it is quite itchy and really warm to the touch, has this happened to anyone else? What shall I do? please help and thank you

Hey Hun!

ah I know how it is...literally the same thing but worse has happened to me

just wondering what happened to your skin afterwards? 

How did you treat it? How long did it take to get better? X
