I just find it so hard as all the scabs are so itchy. Is there anything I can use to stop the itching?

My doctor told me to put olive oil on my skin but it takes my make-up off so if anyone knows how to stop the itching I would really love to know.

If you have it in a spot that is visible and if you are looking for a way to keep your makeup on, moisturize moisturize moisturize. Skin becomes itchy when it is dry, and sometimes I find the best way to stop it is to have a real good skin care regiment. I understand about the olive oil, I was told about that for my eczema that sometimes creeps up my neck to face. The best way to keep your make up on when you use it is to buy cotton balls, after you wash your face, use cotton balls with a little olive oil on it and dab onto the spots that need more moisture. Be aware though, depending on your type of makeup this can cause pores to be clogged and cause blemishes. I would recommend a breathable makeup (liquid/creme) then to stop the ‘shiny’ parts you will want a real translucent powder, one that contains no color goes on clear and lightly pat the areas you used the olive oil. Not only will it give you a dewy fresh matte look, it does not really make your skin look dull and lifeless.

Hope that helps
