I wash my face every morning, today just like any other day, I washed my face this morning & this evening I washed my face in the shower & it felt especially dry & a little irritated so I applied my usual moisturizer & my skin started burning! I splashed a little water on it & it has since stopped burning & is still red & I have a slight abrasion on my nose.

I did all the same things as usual. is it because I washed it twice? what could be the cause if not that?

You may have too harsh if a face wash and need to get a gentler one. When i wash my face with something that has salicylic acid in it , my face does the exact same thing!

Have you exfoliated at all? Skin is changing constantly and what may work one day may give you a reaction the next. Try to use organic products where possible. These will irritate your skin less and are far better for you

To cool and calm your skin in the mean time grab some organic aloe and use that to cool your skin.

i only wash once a day. in the morning i use a wipe and i wash at night. i have beautiful skin if i'm being honest. i don't break out barely ever and i don't need to wear foundation. i wear bb cream to balance out some redness and even out my skintone a bit but that's all.
