Hi Ray,

             I just wanted to say thanks. I have had these red bumps under my eyes for 3 weeks now. Mainly on my left eye, but slightly on my right.  I have been trying to slowly eliminate all of my moisturizers, lotions,etc.  I tried all kinds of creams to get rid of this to no avail.  I have been using hydrocortisone and calamine lotion. They seems to help, but it always come back. (Its back)  Well I'm glad you mentioned Candida. Its a big possibility.   I am also a big sugar fan. I love my coffee and creamer and I use Tom of Maine Toothpaste. Very strange. Maybe I was meant to read this. I am going to investigate. I hope my coffee is not the culprit.   But something tells me its the creamer.  I am addicted to (Coffeemate Peppermint Mocha).  I love my cream and tons of sugar in my coffee. Wish me luck. Thanks again. Amy

Ok, I found the answer to red pimple under eye!  Went through a thousand blogs! No one knew what this was...no one got better for any length ...one person stopped using toothpaste ! One in a thousand! It worked..took a few days to heal completely for my son. There is a toxin in it that causes this rash...pimples...swelling red...under eye! No kore toothpaste! No it's not the floride...it's another poison, not listed...it's even in tom's....you can look it up on line sodium laurel sulfate...it's in everything....that bubbles...but it makes animals go blind...it's used as insecticide but is in toothpaste and baby shampoo...they lie and say it's natural but it's as natural as another insecticide...starts from coconut...they change the molecules, turns it to poison...anyway...no toothpaste , no rash....

Hello folks,

I appreciate the inputs others have provided - it's a big help to all.  I had a red rash, including small bumps (pimple like) under both eyes for past 10 years.  Dermatologist prescribed cortisone, then eventually Protopic after years of cortisone use (not good!). Both these ointments controlled/mostly eliminated the redness for many years.  However, these products lost their effectiveness in the last couple of years and didn't do much to prevent/control the redness.   I went to a naturopath doctor looking for solutions.  I went Gluten free - this helped reduce/eliminate some minor skin eczema on my body, but the redness beneath the eyes remained.  I then followed a diet/Candida treatment to rid myself of possible Candida.  This did the trick - the redness disappeared in approximately 3 months. I continue to follow a wheat/gluten free, dairy free and low sugar diet.  No more issues with eczema or redness beneath the eyes.  I firmly believe that diet is the root cause of most skin manifestations.

JUST WANT TO SAY A HUGE THANKYOU, you've been a great encouragement and I find your post v honest and humorous, I've just in the past few weeks began a gluten free, sugar free, acid free diet and I used to be a coffee addict which I think is probably why, similar to others, my body is suddenly allergic to life :') CHANGE YOUR DIET PEOPLE, get to the root cause and use creams to resolve the appearance only. People like Ray just go to show how these days we are often better off without the doctors, atleast when it comes to skin, you cant Really be of assistance unless youve had a problem yourself, I've seen a million and one doctors and all you gain
is;antihistamines/steroid creams. I'm 17 yrs old and I love junk food but living without it has actually not been very hard but I guess it's because I'm so desperate to be well again, TRY IT, STICK TO IT AND SEE IF IT WORKS IM SURE IT SHALL. Don't ever ever ever believe it when people say there isn't a cure, there is, you just have to find it. Lots and lots of love to you all who are suffering, ive been stuck in my house for 6months with very very severe skin allergies i had to leave my college, it's a battle but we will overcome, thanks again Ray, a lot of people don't come back and post progress so you never really know if it worked or not, I hope you come back and see this so you Knw how grateful I am, all the best to you and your family
