Facial rash from food allergy?

[lmknip67]

Is it possible to get a rash just on my face from a food allergy? I have had a horrible rash on my face for almost a year now. I use Elidel and a cortisone cream to keep it at bay. I have been tested for all products I use and other ingredients that are common in cleansers and lotions. I wasn't allergic to any of them. They tried treating me as if it was rosacea, a yeast infection etc. It is small hivey bumps that itch so badly. The come out and last about a day, then disappear while new ones keep popping up. They are all over my face, cheeks, forhead, chin, a bit on the neck, temple etc. But not anywhere else on my body. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you!

I think I have something similar, and am trying to discover if it is an allergy, so I can avoid what is causing it.  A rash, only on my face.  Several years ago, it would just appear on my temples, but now it covers a wider area including my cheeks and under my jawline.  It comes and goes, sometimes it is very minor, but sometimes, it gets very red, itchy, with lots of little tiny white pimples (not pimples the way I'm used to, which are clogged pores, but pinprick sized whiteheads in clusters).  I'm very careful about what I put on my skin, and have avoided everything for periods of time long enough to rule out a topical allergy.  But I'm daunted with the idea of eliminating everything from my diet and testing things one by one.  I think strawberries may be problematic, but avoiding strawberries alone has not cleared it up.  I am aware that excess heat can bring it out, but I think there is another factor.  I don't have a doctor to just ask, or insurance to cover an allergist.  Would prefer a natural way of dealing with it anyway, and not "medication".  Any ideas anyone?
