Could it be an issue with your laundry detergent? I have very sensitive skin (not to mention defective lungs) and have found I can only use Tide Free (and even then I try not to breathe while the bottle's open). If you're using fabric softener you probably want to quit that as well. Also look at your soap. I've also had good luck with aloe calming down skin irritation.

It's not out of the realm of possibility, any of what you say.

I've always been one to use whatever we have around, but it's never been a problem before. And, now that I've been back home, with all my regular stuff, for a month, you'd think that any sensitivity I developed to things at Russell's would have cleared up, or at least be moving in that direction, which it's not. Unless my skin has decided to be extra special weird, which isn't out of the question.

At the very least, I need to buy new soap soon; I figure it can't be a bad thing to find something soothing for sensitive-type skin, regardless of what's up.

I had eczema on my eyelids a few months ago. Had to go to the doc for some cream. I was advised to moisturise my eyelids.

You get the choice of subject matter for Week 80 of babylon5contest.

What do you want? (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Never ask that!

Ahem.

I'm so sorry about not giving you a subject choice. I guess that's what I get for kind of completely not doing any LJ stuff for ages and ages. So... subject matter for a B5 contest.... How about something with the League of Non-Aligned Worlds? Not that I've kept up with comm *hides face in shame*, but that sounds like something a bit different.

(Yeah, whatever it was that I had has cleared up, yay; I'm going to pretend it was my combination of oatmeal body wash, washcloths instead of bath poofs, and moisturizer. 'Cause that way, I can combat it again, should it reappear. :D)
