Hi,,

You seem to have developed an allergic reaction to the face wash.

You need to discontinue using it.

Use a mild topical steroid like hydrocortisone over the affected area twice a day.

Take some oral antihistamines to decrease the itching and the allergy.

Do not use the same product again.
See a dermatologist for treatment of skin pigmentation after the allergy subsides.

Hope it helps
