For the last 10 years my skin has been a bloody nightmare.
Annoyingly it isn't somewhere I can hide. It is slap bang in the middle of my face. It all started about 10 years ago. I would get a burning feeling on my face, which within hours would result in horrible red blotches appearing on my cheeks and nose. Sometimes I would also get scratchy rashes appearing on my neck and in my beard (or the pathetic amount of facial hair I count as a beard).
There seemed to be no reason that this was happening. Sometimes it would happen after a night out so I gave up booze for a few months - nothing happened. I tried every kind of moisturiser under the sun - still nothing. I even tried covering myself in sun cream every time I left the house incase it was caused by UV - nowt. I gave up dairy though genuinely struggled without cheese.
