A member asked:

Eye swollen after rubbing them with pimple cream ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rinse and avoid: Examine the contents of the "pimple cream" in the packing. There are many common potentially irritating substances that can even be secretly in cosmetics especially if the bean counters secretly alter theformulations.
