Red Face
Well, after my very red and dry skin over Christmas I am now back at work and back in the gym. My skin was totally clear on my face when I went back to work but after a hard cardio workout yesterday lunch time it got really red and lumpy. It had calmed down by the following morning but one can just see the red areas although they are quite faint.
It seems the heat from the workout and the shower after are causing my face to go all red and patchy. I can’t stop going to the gym but don’t want the red face.
I have googled some cooling face creams, has anyone used any of these:
Korres Yogurt Cooling Gel Moisturising Face And Body Aftersun Gel:
Jason Witch Vera Cooling Gel:
If so let me know what you think of them.
Thanks.
Back in the offfice…
Well I am back at work after two weeks off for Christmas.
On around the 23 December my face was really dry and scratchy and I set off for Christmas with an angry looking face. I used E45 cream over the next few days which didn’t really do much. But a few days out of the dry office and avoiding hot showers my skin was on the mend. I bought some Botanics skin cream which goes on well and seemed to help clear it up as after a few days my skin was totally clear on my face. I’m not sure if it ‘cured’ it as it was clearing up a bit any ways but it stops it from itching. I will continue to use it for the foreseeable. Hopefully being back in the dry office won’t set my face skin off again. Its not very hot today so fingers crossed. Also I will be back in the gym at lunch time after two weeks off, ususaly getting hot and sweaty makes my dry skin a fair bit worse.
What triggered my face to go all scaly:
- stressing about Christmas?
- the dry heat of the new office?
- the cold winter air?
Who knows…
