My face is already bright red after 6 rad tx. Doc has said only vitamin e or aloe on my face... aloe has alcohol in most formulations and the vitamin e is really sticky and the oil is making my skin breakout. He said no make-up or lotion... and only use camay to wash my face/neck.

Anyone use anything else on their face? I'm going crazy with the red/dry/peeling skin that I am developing. Is my doc just being really conservative about this?

Thanks for your help!
