Hello!
Thank you for asking on Healthcaremagic!

Your symptoms could be related to anxiety or an electrolyte imbalance. I would not exclude an irritation of the facial nerve too (facial spasms).
Anyway, I agree with you that the fat burners can contribute to your symptoms, considering the fact that they may cause a lot of changes in your metabolism, electrolytes and even increase irritability and anxiety.
If the problem persists, I would first recommend stopping these substances. If this tip does not help, consulting with your doctor and performing some tests (including blood electrolytes) will be necessary.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
