Just started using bp; my cheeks are swollen, dry, itchy and super irratable. should i continue bp and if so, do you know what the best moisturiser is?

Stop the medication: Hello, by "BP" I assume you are referring to a blood pressure medication. Any time you develop suspected side effects to a new medication, you should immediately stop that medication. This may represent an allergic drug reaction. Without getting more info and performing an exam, I cannot make a diagnosis, but these symptoms are concerning for angioedema, which requires immediate medical attention.
