So today is day 6 of my newly vegan life and last night I started to get a rash on the side of my face! It is so itchy, and it feels like my face is on fire! I don't know what to do! I'm wondering if its because of my new diet? If you guys could give me any advice that would be great!

If it's a rash perhaps it is not related to food. I'd start with ruling out any bed sheets or towels washed in a new laundry detergent. I know (from experience) I can not touch any cleansing products that contain bleach, it causes my skin to breakout. And towels washed with bleach? My skin gets inflamed and red. I wish you luck in figuring out what is causing it!

I know it's not any of my clothes or towels (I haven't changed my detergent). The rash has gone away for now thank god! I'm just hoping it doesn't come back! Thank you for your help :)
