Allergic To Lubriderm??
Well I have had bad acne lately under my chin and was looking for something to moisturize my face and help it heal. So I looked through my local grocery store and found Lubriderm hand lotion, Fragrance Free Version. I look on the back and it says it's Non-comedogenic, so it won't clog my pores.. So I'm thinking, GREAT, this will help and everything will get well soon, right?? WRONG.... As it turns out, I put it all over my face yesterday afternoon, and by this morning, my face is swollen, and broken out... Even my eyelids are swollen and I could barely open my left eye this morning. So... I go to Franklin Park Urgent Care Center and they say that it is INDEED an Allergic Reaction.. And they only thing I used on my skin out of the ordinary is the Lubriderm.. So, I've just found out I'm badly allergic to the stuff and now I look like I got a major sunburn on my face and my eyelids are slightly swollen... I am now taking Claritin and using Hydrocortisone cream to take down the swelling.. I'm simply having the worst complexion week ever for my face... And all right as I am looking forward to going out to the movies with my new friend Dave on Thursday (tomorrow).... AARRRGGHHH!!! In other news, I have a phone interview with Washington State University on Thursday. Hopefully this goes well because I really need to get a new job lined up! I know if I get the job with them that I will have to move to Pullman, Washington (about 2 hours away), but I really need this. Wish me luck! 2006-04-26 19:53:03 GMT
