Im really concerned because every time I apply lotion or cream on my face, I get a burning sensation and it gets really irritating. Im thinking it might be a sunburn, but Im not sure. Some parts of my face are really dry, and when I put cream on those spots, it burns even more. What can I do to get my skin smooth and clean? Any advice would be really helpful.

Question

I've got this thing happening with my nipples where the skin turns dark brown or even black and gets really hard. It seems dry and cracked, and when I peel it off and use some cream or lotion, it gets better. But as soon as I stop using the cream, it goes back to how it was before. This has been happening for about two years now, and Im 19 years old. Do you have any idea what might be causing this and what I should do?
