I have dry skin/a crust at the base of my eyelids and I am also losing my eyelashes, could this be an infection? Same thing for my eyebrows.

Based on the symptoms described, it is possible that you have blepharitis, an inflammation of the eye caused by a bacterial infection and/or dryness. I suggest applying a warm compress to your eye four times a day and using moisturizing eye drops to reduce dryness. You may also consider using antibiotic eye drops if necessary. If your symptoms do not improve or worsen, it would be best to consult with an eye specialist for further evaluation.
