Possibilities: Does your face appear flushed? Certainly hot flashes can make your face feel as if it's burning but usually associated with flushing. Also rosacea can cause a burning sensation but usually with redness. Certain allergies could do it, thyroid problems, polycythemia (too many blood cells) or reactions to topical creams or makeup. Skin on the face tends to be more sensitive than the rest of the body.
