I tried Benton cacao moist and mild serum and it made my skin warm and tingly every time, especially in the upper lip area. This happened the last 3 times I tried it. It’s a mild tingling sensation which didn’t go away. My skin didn’t go red or anything and the tingling was localised to around the upper lip area. However my whole face went warm.

Then I washed it off and I put on Etude House Soon jung relief 5.5 toner. And it did the same, but I didn’t feel warm. Just the mild tingling on the upper lip. This time the tingling sensation dissipated mostly.

Re the laroche posay toleriane – I felt a stinging sensation when I did a test patch on my neck … using the LRP toleriane light moisturiser. I didn’t use it again.

Hi there, I have just started using the La Roche Posay Tolleriane Ultra cream and only have used 3 times.The first time, it had felt alright but then I put the cream on again in the evening and throughout the night for some hours, my face grew hot and a little tingly. I used it in the next morning and it left my skin slightly less tingly but the feeling was there was for a couple of hours. Should I throw it away or just test it the whole week as I just recently switched from my Aveeno cream? many thanks x

In reply to Carol. Carol, vitamin C can tingle, if it's present in a high dose.

I’m using a vitamin c serum with hyaluronic acid in it and it tinged as well and after that my face feels sticky and tight but they assured my that this is normal

In reply to Jayme Rose. Jayme, oh no! So sorry this happened to you! Thanks for sharing your experience, I'm sure it'll help others. I agree, more often that not, the tingling is a sign of irritation and it's best to remove the offending product straight away.
