Redness Along Lashes And Eyebrows On Using Makeup, Persisting Burning With Medicines. Remedy?

My eyelids along the lashes and eyebrows get very red and feel like a rug burn when I use makeup. My doctor perscribed medication with steroids and a natural medication. The symptoms go away after 3 days. I have tried Clinque eye makeup (hypoallegenic) and I still get the redness and burning feeling on the skin along lash line and eyebrows. The doctor contends it is not an allergy to makeup, she says it is dermatitis . How do I get rid of this so I can wear eye makeup?

Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Hi
Thanks for your query
Your doctor has confirmed that it is dermatitis not allergy. He would have examined you. So better to go with his diagnosis. Then you should undergo his treatment mainly consisting of local antibiotics and steroid ointments. Keep the local hygiene dry and clean always. Dont make that place moist. Keep yourself aloof of those make ups for some days until it has disappeared fully. Then you can use them. You may take a second opinion from another dermatologist.
Thank you.

if your skiin is allergic it does not matter you apply hypoallergic
you shoud see the contents of make up
the ointments soaps creams and shampoos and make up should be free from milk diary egg mustard groundnut almomds coconut and walnut
dont use these in cooking application
i think it shuld solve problem
if you you want to be sure go for allergy tests
