    You're alergic.

    Wash your face with soap-free soap if you know what I mean.

    "Pears" Is a good soap-free brand. Wash your face with that.

    Hope this helps hun.

    Probably cos it has loads of other chemicals in that your skin had a reaction to. Everyone thinks body shop is natural and nice. But its got the same ingredients as all the others, because it was sold to a commercial company! Sensitive skins stay away! :|

    Try a lotion/cream that has hardly any ingredients in. Less to be allergic to :) Or you could try aqueous cream or emollient cream and add you own ingredients and scents e.g. vitamin e

    sort of, I used some on my face and it made my eyelids sore and very dry and I too have very sensitive skin, I find the body butter or Hemp works best
