Hello! I’m a 31F (158cm) with controlled type 1 diabetes (A1C of 6) and celiac disease who is currently experiencing this very weird skin condition where my skin feels like it’s burning where the red spots are located.

The burning sensation is extremely painful and occurred pretty rapidly after applying sunblock on vacation. I took a shower at our AirBnb, used the towels to dry off, used my own skincare products that I’ve used for years, and then applied this new sunblock that I got as a tester in the mail. A few hours later, I started feeling itchy along my face and neck so I washed off the sunblock and threw out the small tester.

Over the next few days I started developing these red burning spots everywhere you see in the photos. I noticed that they seemed to be getting deeper into my skin if that makes sense? I’m in Albania on vacation and will be returning to my country in a few days. I’m a bit intimidated about going to a medical clinic here so I did go to the pharmacy and get a topical steroid to maybe help if it’s an allergic reaction. I’m not sure if that’s helping actually.

What can possibly be going on? FWIW I plan on seeing my GP as soon as I get home.

More irritation means more pigmentation. Korean sunscreen isn’t tested in Lima Peru or Bangalore India. Any one who disagrees with number 2, provide the link to a non-sponsored study.

Debunking myths; High SPF /high PPD sunscreen by itself can’t prevent tans. Melanin production depends on many factors: genetics, irritation, inflammation, oxiditative damage, hormones, medical conditions. Avoid irritating ingredients

The Ingredients present in many chemical sunscreen that irritate your eyes are also likely to irritate your skin. Beware of sunscreen that contains these ingedients.

Sunscreens that sting my eyes

Avoid being outdoors when UV index is above 1. Always search for sunscreen that contains Zinc oxides and iron oxides. Don’t forget that irritation increases melanin. If you’re outdoors no sunscreen is ever enough.

Let’s stop the dangerous notion that “just apply and reapply sunscreen and you’ll be fine.” That’s a myth pushed by many skincare subs but if you have skin lightening goals and a darker skin tone sunscreen isn’t enough.
