    I've recently gotten a really itchy/burning sensation all over my face.
    I can't for the life of me figure out why though.
    The soap I use on my face, I've been using for ages and it is hypoallergic.
    I haven't changed my diet at all.
    The only things I could think of was a possible seasonal allergy, coopertone suntan lotion and cigarette smoke (a new roomate moved in, and she smokes (outside of course), and I've been joining her for conversation company). But I'm usually fine in the spring, as well as fine with coopertone suntan lotion and I've spent time with smokers before.

    I just want this itch to go away.
    Any natural remedies for my itchy face?
    Any other suggestions as to what this itch could be caused by?

    Thanks in advance.

    aloe vera helps with the burny sensation too

    wash your clothes and sheets (and pillowcases), but with as little soapies as you can get away with. Oftentimes stuff can get caught in there and irritate the skin, or a new laundry soap can cause reactions too
