I think o, but I’m not a dermatologist! You should go see a dermatologist, don’t use lotion, that’ll make it worse. You should make an appointment so they can give some ointment or something, make sure wash so it doesn’t get infected!
OUCH! That’s pretty bad! Ice it down if it’s swelled, if not, then try to find some Skin Lotion or Moisturizer and just let it sit. Keep using it throughout the whole winter!! That way you wont ever see it again.
sounds like youve caught a bit of frostbite
if youve got any talc,use that :)
Lotion does not make it worse, it just hurts for a bit. If you don’t know what your face-skin type is, go see a dermatologist and s.he’ll get you something in no time.

the only dermatologist here is always bussy and her next open appointment is in 6 months
Well, it will make it worst or better, depending on the brand, don’t use cheap stuff, use good things like Lubriderm or something.
put a thick layer of lotion!
then once the layer is dry wash it w/ hot water & reapply the lotion again, and keep on doing till your skins back how its sposed to be.
heza and me agree!! Lubriderm, gret for all skin types. And if the dermatologist isn’t in, then go to your clinic, they’ll figure it out.

oh ok i will try it asap!
if your face is burning really bad
simple solution would be talcum powder
it takes the burning away.
Woah, I just gound out what Lurbriderm meant!
xd
Lubri- lubricate
derm- dermatologist, dermi, skin
:D
Oh and, when you go outside, wear a scarf or something over your face, so it doesn’t get worse. Do you live where it snows?

yes i do its about 18 degrees outside right now too :P
Ohhh, yeah that’s why… The cold isn’t good for your skin… So yeah, go to the store and get lotion, every time you are going to go outside, put on Lubriderm, and try to cover you face as much as possible (:
Didnt read all the other replies but you need an emollient and if you do use a lotion make sure it is unperfumed as that might make it sting
