Hope you’re feeling better Soph. Don’t put your self down for feeling scared by your experience, suffering from something which you’ve never heard of before is scary and can be draining! You’re fabulous and your videos are always comforting for me to watch when I’m feeling anxious so we’re always here to listen for you too 💕
I’m so glad everyone is finally using shimmers in the crease! I have always done that but there was a point where everyone thought it was a mortal sin 😂 Soph’s here to show you how cool it looks lol
Same. I had it once after walking pneumonia and never again. My derm suggested switching to products for eczema treatment. Ultimately it took about three weeks total to clear up.
I've had it before too! I've had it a couple of times now and It did just go away eventually, I think I just had some emollient cream to put on it but it didn't help much. But it definitely made me feel really self conscious and fed up, so I feel for you 😞xx
i had it for the first time last year (altho i’m no stranger to random rashes and skin conditions lol) and it was so confusing!! the speed that it spread was crazy. I found taking an antihistamine helped a bit if there was any itching
I had pitryiasis rosea, it’s terrifying as so many doctors disagree but camomile lotion helped so much for me !! I had it just after Christmas last year spread all over my body but honestly once using the camomile lotion really got rid of it so quickly !!
I've had it and it wasn't that terrifying tbh. It was a long time ago, I guess me and my parents were concerned when the marks started appearing (specially the "mother" mark) but my dermatologist was super chill about it. She was like "oh I haven't seen pityriasis rosea for quite a long time!" as if I was just a fun study case xD I don't remember the details as I was a kid, but she basically said it was harmless. I must have rubbed something on my skin and it was gone. Although I think one of the marks has stayed since then...
@@dustinbrooks2246 It's a bigger spot among all the other spots. I think it tends to appear 1st, they say it's the one that originates all the others. Idk how it's called in english, "mother mark" is literally the translation from portuguese from what my dermatologist said xD
This happened to me Soph! Years ago - when I was a flight attendant for a few months, and I pinpointed it to my Flight Uniform! I’m so sorry. It really sucks and unfortunately will just go away on it’s own. It might be noteworthy to say that I hated the job and was really stressed out and unhappy. Once I re-aligned with my Dharma and made decisions for myself, it went away. Felt like the universe was helping to re-direct me. Love you!❤❤❤
Hi Soph! I had the same thing a few years ago and it was really scary but my dermatologist told me it would clear on it’s own and it did! Hoping you have a speedy recovery too ❤
I was diagnosed with pityriasis rosea about 2 years ago! It comes and goes and I have to put steroid cream (hydrocortisone usually) on each mark which is a nightmare 😅 but this usually helps to clear it up. I’m glad you’ve managed to get answers! Xx
In 2021 and 2022 I often broke out in major facial swelling, itchiness and bright pink/red patches. It was mainly on my face however I would sometimes break out into a rash over my body as well. It was very similar to an allergic reaction. I went to so many specialists, GP’s and pharmacists. Nobody could give me any answers and after completing a bunch of allergy tests, they couldn’t find any answers. Some doctors had put it down to stress related flare ups. I haven’t had any trouble with it since 2022. So don’t underestimate what stress can do and how your body could react as well. Hope you’re doing better Soph! ❤️❤️
Can we just take a moment… I remember watching you when you lived with yours parents while I was living with my parents! Now, we have our own little homes, with the best fiancés and talking about our wedding days 🥹 It’s such an emotional/happy feeling, I’ve literally grown with you 🥰 Thank you for always being a constant comfort in my life ❤️
Sophhhhh the elf lip liner names are in the worlds tiniest writing on the lid! The silliest thing I know, but you don’t have to keep putting it back into the wrapper 😂😂 x
I had a similar skin experience to this, had 3 biopsies and they didn't find anything, but the rash was covering nearly all of my stomach/sides/back/legs and my skin was literally flaking off it was awful! thankfully it's mostly cleared now😅. glad you're feeling a bit better, we missed you ❤ xx
I have had pitoriasos rosea before!! I was so worried as well as I had never had any skin problems before. It was only on my torso and arms. After a few weeks when it reached its peak the red marks slowly began to fade. My arms were last to clear up after about 2 months, hope it goes quickly x
The last time I had it this was the same thing I experienced! Just have to give it time and the spots will fade x definitely isn't fun tho that's for sure!!
The PLouise blush, the top of it is actually supposed to come off, I think they wanted it be more MUA friendly so they can squeeze it into little pots to use on clients etc. ❤
I find with the plousie blushes you have to gently squeeze the air out, too hard and it pops 😅. Their bridal pallette is also gorgeous for a neutral lover. I'm obsessed with the curve case too, got mine £12 on black Friday and I would 100% buy it full price now
I think I had the exact same rash too!! Just before Christmas! It came up when I researched it. Came on super quickly then faded slowly, was so itchy and annoying, I never get rashes! I got a mild cold a little bit after too!
I have this skin condition too! If it helps, my first outbreak of it was by FAR the worst. After that, maybe once a year I get one or two patches once it gets cold/dry out but it has never been as bad as far as spreading, scaly-ness, or itching.
wishing you the best soph! you are very much allowed to be scared of your illness, being sick can be really scary especially if there isn't a clear resolution. sending love 💗
I had the same rash a few years ago! Wasn’t linked to an illness or allergies or anything and it just came on completely randomly, then it went after a few months. Only thing that helped to fade it quicker was applying eucerin lotion and coconut oil every day🥲
I had pityriasis rosea last year, it was after a bad cold/being run down, definitely triggered by viruses! It lasted for just over a month, but I was told it could last anywhere up to 5 months! So got lucky really! I used the La Roche posay b5 to moisturise though and waited it out (they say to use emollient creams). Hope it clears up soon and you can go back to feeling better in yourself!!! X
I hope your feeling better, I also had this, this year. I got covid for the first time 2 days before Christmas and it wiped me out for almost 2 weeks and still can't smell or taste and am exhausted. Long story short, I also got this skin issue, mostly my inner thighs, under my armpits, my chest and my arms, it is loads better now but nothing really helped it just is slowly healing up. I'm so sorry you have been suffering too. Fingers crossed you heal up quickly. I'm looking forward to the video ❤
I don’t do a lot of makeup, but my favorite thing I bought the last year were Maybelline Lifter Gloss! Specifically the Gummy Bear shade. It feels so nice and it lasts and doesn’t dry out my lips after using it
I also have developed Pityriasis Rosea! I was feeling poorly around Christmas and ended up getting a rash that has spread like wildfire. Good thing that it's very common and goes away after 6-12 weeks and doesn't cause any serious side effects ☺️
I got Pityriasis earlier 2023, as well! If you have psoriasis in any capacity, you’re susceptible to the autoimmune response that causes pityriasis anytime your immune system is down. I had it after catching a viral respiratory infection, and the last spot didn’t clear for 2 months. Once the “heralds patch” heals, you’re in the clear!
Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better after your flare up, that sounds like it was really confronting! Wishing you all the best in your recovery. My makeup faves for the year, because you asked 😉 - Loungeface Mascara - Fenty Eze Drop Skin Tint - Hourglass single pan bronzer & holiday palette for blush - Flower beauty eyebrow pencil - Rare beauty lipliner in worthy - Laneige lip sleeping mask Wishing you a great 2024 ahead!
I had the same condition on my face my eyes swelled up and my face was full of rash for almost 2 yrs. when I thought it was over I had it on my wedding day. It went away by itself but I’m always terrified it will come back so I am so careful with my skin care. Such an awe full thing for you to go through bless you x
I went through a scary rash right before I started college and it was horrible 😅 at first I thought it was an allergic reaction to penicillin I took for a sore throat but now I realize I might have had hand foot and mouth disease, which is weird because usually only babies and toddlers get it, and I haven’t been around any for a long time 😂 I got it really bad on the bottom of my feet too, which made it feel like hell to walk around. I littlerally had to crawl on my hands and knees around my house, it was so bad. I found that any talc powder helps with the itchiness if your experiencing that. Happy new year soph ! 😊
There are several things I’ve needed to repurchase in my makeup collection after I’ve run out of them. But I have waited to buy until this video!! I knew I wanted to hear your favorites before I replaced some of my old makeup items. I’ve been looking to this video for ages. Thank you Soph 💕
I suffer with psoriasis and I completely get where you’re coming from it is so mentally draining! I had UV therapy at the hospital for mine, the waiting list is so long though so if I have a flare up these days I use the sun beds for a few minutes a week, it helps! Not sure if it’s the same for you, but could give it a try maybe! I hope it settles down soon! Love your videos xx
I've been super in love with like every E.L.F. product this year! Also my video suggestions for this year are makeup hacks and tips, clean makeup brands video, and how to enhance your natural features such as color theories with like matching your eyeshadow to your opposite color of your eyes or whatever, the inner corner of the eyes having white and whatever those types of makeup theories for fun of course.
Hey Hope, I really hope you'll be fine soon. Wishing you the best for trying the wedding dresses, we love you and hope you find the perfect wedding dress soon!!!!! P.S. I was waiting eagerly for your video and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
The way we are so similar is crazy! I was just diagnosed with Pitoriosis Rosea, and my name is also Sophie as well!! Don’t stress over the diagnosis, as it goes away after a bit! I love watching your videos and you are the my main impact when it comes to the beauty world ever since I started watching you almost 5 years ago? Now i’m 14, and still watch you! Get better and keep going!!!
Omg Soph, I had this rash in 2017 and self diagnosed myself with it after the dr telling me it was a viral infection 🙄 I researched sooo much into it and had it for weeks. After finding out what it was I went to Holland and Barrett and got vitamin D tablets and I got a bath in tea tree oil. I then mixed coconut oil and almond oil and used that ad a moisturiser of a night on the rash before bed and it was gone within two weeks. Hope this helps. I know how you feel it’s awful as it come from no where xx
My mom had the exact same thing happen to her on Christmas Day! She was ill for 1week and then on Xmas broke out with a rash- was rushed to the ER in the nik of time (as her throat started swelling) and then she tested positive for Covid. Not the first story I have heard of Covid being linked to a deadly rash. My mom made it to the ER just in time! This symptom/ side effect should be spoken about more. I hope you are feeling better Soph!
I had an episode of pityriasis rosea this past spring after I had a bad cold. Mine started with a gnarly "mother patch" on my leg and then it erupted all over my trunk, neck, arms, and thighs. For the first two weeks, I had my pharmacy coworkers insist it was hives, but Benadryl wasn't doing anything. I managed to see my GP and she only identified it because she had had it when she was younger. I was given a prescription for a hydrocortisone cream for the particularly itchy spots, and also a 2-week course of Erythromycin antibiotic because there was some research data suggesting that it could reduce the healing time (left alone, it could take up to 6 months for some people). It took me about two months in total for the rash to complete subside. Sometimes, I can see the ghost of some of the patches (especially the mother patch) when I get cold or too hot. It was incredibly uncomfortable and it made me self-conscious when it spread to my neckline and arms where people could see it. Good news is that you usually only ever get it once in your lifetime. Seems to just be a weird immune reaction that the body can have.
i had this last year, lasted about 2-3 months and then it just slowly started to fade away. i still have white scars everywhere from it but it’s not too noticeable. but don’t worry it will fade
Girlll I was diagnosed with that too this time last year! It was a rash that wasnt itchy or painful. Started around my belly button and spread SO FAST. It freaked me out to say the least. I was given a cream by the doctor and it cleared up in days. (I live in Turkey just some info)
i’ve had pityriasis rosea when i was younger and it was horrible, it knocked my self esteem massively. i believe i had it for around a month or two before it finally went away by itself and i haven’t had it since luckily. i hope you feel better soon x
I had it as well 2 years ago and freaked me out but it did just go on its own and I luckily haven't had it since even though I saw some people say it can be reoccurring. What helped me the most while I had it was just mainly keeping fragrance of my skin- I used non scented body wash (sanex) and non scented thick body cream every day (cerave) and it just helped while I rode it out!
I take an Aveeno oatmeal bath every time I have a skin condition. I also use the Aveeno oatmeal bar soap. I learned about this from the pediatrician when my children had chicken pox.
I had it one summer when i was in college. It was awful no sun no swimming and it felt like my skin was on fire. It did go away on its own in about a month and a half and the dermatologist told me it mostly occurs amongst women 15 to 30. Wouldn't wish it on anybody. Good luck i hope it'll be over soon for you 💪😊
Oh I had the same rash you had… but was told it was a type of fungus. But funnily enough, it comes back when I’m stressed/ran down. What really helps is to wash with Nizoral shampoo every so often. Sending you a big healing hug. Enjoy the wedding dress shopping! So exiting!!! By the way, there’s a Pronuptia in Paris, near the church called La Madeleine. The dresses are STUNNING and way cheaper than in the UK (well they were when I got married) - It’s a great day trip to do with your girls coz it only takes 1.5h to get there on the Eurostar.
I developed pityriasis rosea after taking NSAIDs from an injury. My dermatologist said the only treatment was UV rays and suggested to go into sunshine and expose my skin. I went to the beach and it cleared right up within a day or two. Probably not the best solution for the winter time but it worked for me!
I had experienced it before COVID ,about 6 years ago.I flew back home and felt a bit run down then the next few days,I was all a rash!! Took me around two weeks for them to completely go ,was quite scary
Every single time I get a severe infection, like bronchitis or strep throat, I always get a rash afterwards. It started when I was a child, and I’m 37 now. I also tend to get it around the holidays, probably because you’re exposed to more people than normal? Who knows?!? My pediatrician told me to try hot baths when I was younger and that is still what I do. It seems counterintuitive for a rash or a hive like reaction, but it has always worked for me to help with the swelling of the patches and itching. Best of luck. 🤞
I literally have JUST got over pityriasis rosea and I felt the exact same. Mine was on the back of a viral cold. It got to the point, emotionally, where I was in tears looking at my body because it’s spread from just my chest to my entire body, scalp and everything. But I got prescribed some ointment and it left completely after 4 weeks. Hang in there soph, it’ll get better I promise🥰🥰
I had the same thing in aug 2020. It cleared completely by itself in about 4 weeks I think - and I say I think because it honestly just disappeared without me really thinking about it too much. My recommendations are to stop washing with a fragranced soap on the affected area and to wash with aqueous cream. It helps keep the area moisturised. I also applied aqueous cream 2 times a day on the affected regions
I had similar issue went to emergency room 2 times saw 3 telehealth/video, called my primary and ultimately a dermatologist. Other drs all prescribed steroids and a cream…nothing worked. It was itchy painful and the only thing that would help was cold baths with cold towels with ice all over my body. Dermatologist said for me to take 2 Zyrtec pills everyday and increase when they pop up worse. She said that there’s no reason maybe stress. I’ve been taking the Zyrtec faithfully and when I’m brave I stop and within an hour they return. Good luck finding your remedy ❤
I had this in 2019 was told it can be brought on by stress, you start with a “herald patch” and it then very quickly spreads. Mine was full body, face included and it did go away by itself but it was about a month before i felt like i couldn’t see it. 4 years on and there isn’t a mark left but i was recommended to use Vitamin E help with an possibility of scaring. It was awful at the time especially the amount on my face, but really did go away and you would never know. Hope this helps x
I have this! Never met anyone else that has this, mine was really bad with Covid but I normally get it with colds and flus. I find it makes you depressed but then totally fine again when it’s gone. So sorry you’ve developed it, it sucks. Hope you are keeping okay now 💕
I had this also!! Never knew it was a thing but it did with time just go away. I also learned that heat makes it worse so every time Id take a shower it would look so much worse. Hopefully goes away for you soon.
i know no one cares but i thought i’d write down my favourite products of 2023 for all of the three people that will read it xxxx: concealer: laura mercier secret concealer powder: natio translucent loose setting powder (omfg this is so good) bronzer: catrice holiday skin luminous bronzer blush (i have multiple): rose inc cream blush in hydrangea, a’pieu juicy pang blushes (the best blushes i have ever used in my life) highlighter: soph x revolution highlighter pallete obviouslyyyy eyebrows: peripera skinny brow pencil (will never use anything else after discovering this) eyeshadow: any colourpop palette, specifically that’s taupe mascara: wet n wild big poppa mascara setting spray: morphe continuous setting mist lips: peripera water tint, dr lipp tint, fenty crème gloss in cheeky :)))
I’ve spent years searching for my holy grail foundation and have finally found it. Don’t know if you’ve tried it but if not it’d be fab for your wedding day (and any other day too). It’s the Face Atelier foundation. I get it from Doll Face House of Beauty website. The foundation is flawless, foolproof, doesn’t budge, looks so like skin, it has a built in primer and can also be used as concealer and eye primer, it evens out skin texture etc etc. it’s just stunning and literally blends itself, completely adjustable coverage from sheer to full, I will never use anything else again. It looks expensive for a tiny bottle but you only need to use the tiniest amount to get full coverage (I have rosacea so it’s well tested!) The matching powder is beautiful too as it just disappears into the skin. Please try it as it’s designed to work for all skin types and textures and a review of it I think could help so many people struggling to find the right foundation for them. I use the olive adjuster they do in the same range as one struggled to find a foundation that’s not to yellow or too pink and their foundation adjusters just make it so easy to get your perfect match. The foundation is also self setting so for anyone that doesn’t like using powder it’s perfect. I think you’ll love it. ❤
I subscribed to your channel years ago, but only recently I started watching your videos, and I'm having so.much fun. I'm currently watching a video from 2 years ago. Love you❤
Pretty pretty pretty please can you do a bridal makeup tutorial?!? You have taught me everything i know about makeup and i want to do my own makeup for my wedding so any tips?!?
I had that skin rash one summer when I was a teen. My GP said the younger you are the quicker you tend to get rid of it. I had it for about 8 weeks and I've never had it since
Can I just say, as weird as this is going to sound, I don't even wear make up, never have. I've been here since soph does nails and I just love watching all your videos. You, James and pinky are just the best. Family goals right there. ❤
I had the same thing a few years ago! My whole body was covered like yours and then it just disappeared!! It scared me as it just turned up after I had the flu and really brought me down as I couldn’t bear looking at it! I promise it just goes away, it takes a while, mine took like 2 months but it does go
Omg soph I had this!! I got this all over my body and the rash was awful and very blistered. I saw a dermatologist who advised to be really diligent with suncream and moisturising and I found in around 6 months it had completely resolved with no scarring or any issues!
I’ve also had this Soph! It does go away on its own eventually. Nothing really helped me to get it to go away, it just took time and I’ve never had again since! Been 10+ years
Bless you - I’m sorry to hear what has been happening with your skin. I discovered Made By Mitchell last year and I just love it! Can’t stop buying things. I also love that Elf primer too - the green and pink ones… Could you do a video on the new Made By Mitchell mini colour cases please?
Hi Sophie! My friend sent me this video (she's one of your followers!) . I went through a similar experience after having covid really severely last Christmas (2022). I had a rash similar to what you described for about six months on and off. I went to several doctors, dermatologists, pharmacies, blood tests, A&E etc and still to this day never had a known diagnosis but what you described was mentioned. I thought I was allergic to washing detergent, some foods etc. I never got to the root of the problem but one day, it just kinda disappeared?!?! I really feel for you. It was a very difficult part of my life so I really feel for you. It's great you're speaking out about it. I hope it clears up soon x x x
Hi Soph, I have something similar. Mine is womanly area, and my inner thighs. I can sympathize with how it just burns and how defeated you get when you can't find anything to stop it and it's just ever lasting. My initial flare up lasted 6 months of just agony, so I feel so much for you and how depressed and frustrated you must have been. What I find that helps, for me, is the Aveeno Eczema cream. Honestly it worked better for me than the prescription steroid cream the doctor gave me. So much so that I made it a daily staple and I find that it helps keep flare ups at bay. I still have a few patches here and there but nothing near like what it was. I came upon it completely by chance just by trial and error of trying anything that was for rashes or anything like that at the grocery store. It has honestly saved my life! With my Lichen scelerosis, same thing, it goes away on it's own and doctors don't know what causes it. I have recommended the cream to a bunch of friends now. Hopefully your rash clears up for you soon!
hi! i actually got the same skin condition from a throat infection a few years back. my patches went away after a couple of weeks, they suddenly just started healing up and i dont have any scarring. Hope this makes u feel a bit better!
I used to get a rash all over my body too, it literally went away like 7 years ago. But two years ago I developed the rash again. My dermatologist put me on Dupixent. She said it was some type of eczema. It’s a self injection every two weeks. It changes the game for me. No side effects & my rash has NEVER came back. I am so grateful for it.
I’ve had the same condition and mine was linked to a virus. The rash appears along nerve lines and is generally worse on either the front or back of the body rather than both and you’ll find that say if it’s mostly on your from then you’ll have a big patch on the opposite side of your body. It goes away on its own and won’t necessarily ever come back. Mine happened 20 years ago and I’ve not had it since. You just have to wait for it to go away and moisturise the skin well in the meantime.
I get phorosis like that too mainly caused by being extremely hot in the summer or parts of my body being to exposed to the cold in winter it also follows my scratches if I accident get a scratch my joints sometimes and it just comes and goes
Hi Soph! I had this around 6 months ago! I agree with the struggles…but it will clear! Mine went away on its own after about 12 weeks! I also had the same panic as you! X sending hugs and love!
I can totally relate to you I was diagnosed with the same thing when I was an early teen. I was advised to stay away from perfume based products for my skin as this can cause a flare up and honestly it has helped so much I haven't had a flare up since. I hope you feel better soon and it doesn't flare up again.
In the fall of 2019, a relative gave me mono (by dipping the ice scoop directly into her drink while she was ill). I developed a giant, very red, extremely itchy rash on the front of my neck soon after. I couldn’t wear necklaces, I couldn’t wear high neck shirts, scarfs, etc for almost four years. The rash went away after a few months, but the inability to wear anything touching it remained. In the last few months that part has gotten better (not gone though and I'm not pushing it). I went through dozens of lotions and creams - both meant for itch and just face/body formulas. The only thing that helped the extreme itching was the snail mucin 96 serum. I have the 92 cream and that didn’t help it. But two pumps of the serum slathered on my neck a few times a day helped me not scratch. Nobody ever gave my condition a name - I just call it “mono neck”. But I’m pretty sure you solved the mystery that my docs couldn’t! So thank you! I hope the snail serum helps you.
Hi Sophie, i had that last year and i got up on anti fungal tablets for 2 weeks and it cleared it right up. I was the same as you feeling ill before the rash appeared. Mine started on my arms and then went to my legs and before i knew it it was all over my body. I have not had it again since its been about 6 months and i have no marks left from where it was. Hope your getting better and its keeps clearing up :) love your videos been watching since i was like 15 i am not 23 hahaha xx
“Oh god, I didn’t fill in my hair line… oh well. We are all friends here!” Yes we are soph! Really really excited for any wedding content, you will make suuuuch a stunning bride! And I bet James will look suave af. Also yes please to the brush video! I am always lost on what to use where and when, and I love that you do high end and drug store, cos let’s be honest, pretty sure most of us are on a budget! Happy new year! Hope your skin clears up soon. Much love xx Edit to say, did you take the stuff that exploded on a plane? Wondering if the pressure change did something to it.
Can you do a video on how you do your nails they are always so pretty. Your videos have help me so much to do my makeup. It never be easy for me to do my makeup I always go back to the way I did it when I was a teenager and it wasn't great then so thank you so much for teaching me to do it better
