Need more info: What you have described could be many things. Common possibilities would be dry skin, irritant or allergic problems to skin care products and stress to name a few. Try and determine a pattern to your symptoms, what makes it worse, what makes it better. Answering these questions sometimes can narrow the potential causes. Try some otc hydrocortsone for 1-2 weeks if no help see a dermatologist.
