tigressA Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I had my eyebrows waxed Saturday. Sunday night I felt some weird bumps in the area between my brows. By Monday morning it was a fairly full-blown rash of sorts, right between my brows. It looks like a bunch of small pimples, but they are all red and they don't 'feel' like pimples. The area feels rough to the touch, even slightly scab-like. I am grateful I had bangs cut into my hair so at least it can be covered up without makeup (which would probably irritate it) while at work. Anyone else have something like this happen? What can I do to make it go away? Link to post Share on other sites
Star Gazer Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 If it itches, it sounds exactly like contact dermatitis, in which case, get some anti-fungal cream and hydro-cortisone, rub it on there before bed and in the morning, and voila! Gone. Link to post Share on other sites

Gone. It doesn't itch at all. I could still try the anti-fungal stuff though. Link to post Share on other sites
creighton0123 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 It doesn't itch at all. I could still try the anti-fungal stuff though. Be careful using around your eyes, especially if you're prone to forehead sweating. It does sound like it is caused by irritation and/or very mild infection from the eyebrow waxing. Soap it. Keep it dry. It should resolve in a few days. Link to post Share on other sites
Author tigressA Posted January 14, 2012 Author Share Posted January 14, 2012 I bought some pure tea tree oil and have been applying that 2-3 times a day. I Googled my dilemma and found a lot of answers pointing to tea tree oil. It's definitely helping. The bumps aren't red anymore and they have gone down significantly. Aside from that I have been gently soaping up the area twice a day, in the morning and evening. It should be all cleared up within the next 2-3 days. Link to post Share on other sites
