Hello
previously i posted i was using a liz earle moisturiser which ruined my skin. my skin now feels very irritated, dry, painful, itchy and burning. now i am not as "moisturiser tolerant" as before even for those i used in the past
I do not want to use steriods or hydrocortisone creams as both do not work and i am afraid further use may thin my skin.
i was thinking of
1) calamine lotion
2) aloe vera juice with coconut oil
what do your think? help would be needed as i am flying to south korea in 3 weeks time for plastic surgery. i wish to heal my skin before i leave.
thank you |

I agree with Daler - vaseline is a real life saver for damaged and irritated skin. You may try to add a bit of vitamin E oil to see if that will speed up healing a bit.
Keep it simple and non-irritant for at least a couple of weeks, give your skin barrier time to repair itself! |

I think maybe aloe vera juice is ok for the skin.I wonder if the skin is ok for plastic surgery in the situation. |
