Hello,
One possibility that is coming to my mind is of irritant contact dermatitis. Avoid using any lotions and creams over the face for the meantime. Wash your face with a mild cleanser with moisturizing properties like Cetaphil. Pat your face dry. Then apply a good hypoallergenic moisturizer over the area and see if this improves.If the symptoms still persist then please get it evaluated from a dermatologist ad steroids may be needed.

I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep us posted on how you are doing. Kind regards.
