It's been pretty evident since I got Mars and Poppy, that I'm slightly allergic to them. If I put them near my neck, I get a pretty bad rash, nothing hydrocortisone cream can't fix, but I still get it. Also, I never had a problem with chapped lips, but when I put them up near my face, it leaves me with dry cracked skin on my lips and eyelids. I don't have a problem with breathing or anything, it's not drastic. In fact, my arms never get a rash from holding them. Only my neck and face. I do have TONS of allergies to begin with. I went to an allergist who just rolled her eyes and told me to get "rid of them" because my allergy to them wasn't bad enough to warrant her giving me a prescription. So that didn't help. I was wondering if there was an over the counter allergy medicine that helped any of you guys. I was taking benadryl, but it makes me kind of drowsy which isn't good on a day-to-day basis, especially when you're a busy student like myself. If you guys could help me out, that would be great. Thanks!
