Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM

Seems that you have developed irritant dermatitis to the cream

As a treating doctor i would have advised my patient in such a case to use a gentle cleanser like cetaphil for face cleansing

A moderately potent topical steroid cream like fluticasone twice daily is helpful in resolving the dermatitis.

take care
