What Causes A Rash On The Face?

I have a rash on my face. I started a few days ago. I applied special sun lotion specifically made for the face, so I am not sure if the rash is a reaction from the sun or a reaction to the sun lotion. Suggestions on how I should proceed? I ll be out in the sun all day this weekend.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It would be best to use another sun care product since you are not sure if the rash is related to the cream that you used before.

In addition, you may want to try a mild topical steroid to the fact since both allergic reactions to skin products and may also help with some types of skin rashes.
Eg hydrocortisone, this should be over the counter.

I hope this helps
