If you have experienced a reaction to a new cream on your face, it is recommended to try using an antihistamine like Benadryl to help reduce redness, swelling, and itching. However, be cautious as Benadryl can cause drowsiness, so it is advised not to drive or consume alcohol while taking it. You can also soothe itching by applying cold compresses for 10-15 minutes and using a cream with colloidal oatmeal. If there is no improvement within a week or if the reaction worsens, it is best to consult a doctor.
