Lupus?: Do you mean lupus? If so, there is a characteristic "butterfly rash" on both cheeks in women at times. But it is not present in all cases, and sometimes can be due to something else. The link below tells about some early signs, but none are 100% proof of lupus. See your doc for the appropriate tests to diagnosis it. http://www.healthline.com/health/lupus/early-signs
