Whenever I wear eyeshadow I get a red spot (usually in the shape of a circle) on my skin right below my eyebrow. It is itchy and flaky.
So does this happen to anyone else or am I allergic?

The only thing I can think of is your allergic to the stuff your using. Try changing it.

This doesn't happen to me. Maybe you have an allergic reaction. Ask a dermatologist about some of the ingredients in that eyeshadow that you could be allergic to. So then next time you're shopping for makeup, check the ingredients panel and make sure you're not allergic to any of them.

No that's never happened to me. Possibly you are allergic or have sensitive skin. Try using a line like Neutrogena that is for sensitive skin. If that doesn't work for you, go to a dermatologist. It's also possible that it is not even related to the makeup. A good dermatologist will be able to sort this all out for you.

That happened to me once. It's most likely an allergy, or it's old eyeshadow, with bacteria built up into it. Try switching to a different brand, and if it's still happening then, talk to a dermotologist (sp?) or just a normal doctor. They'll be able to find out if it's an allergy or not.

Hmm, I don't know much to be an expert on this, but I think you're allergic to it. Try using another brand to see if it helps.

Try buying hypoallergenic eyeshadow.

It could be an allergy, it could be old makeup that has bacteria growing that causes it. Or going to bed with it on. Throw it away and start with fresh. Remember makeup should be thrown away every 3 mo's. especially eye makeup or keep it in the fridge where bacteria can't grow. And always cleanse your skin before going to bed
