I just remembered foods high in histamine set it off too. So maybe seasonal allergies which are terrible right now are affecting me.

Allergies to the soap you use maybe?

candida and skin problems go hand in hand because of a couple of factors. Candida can spread to the most vunerable parts of the body sebaceous glands included.perfumed products exacerbate the problem, try swopping wash powder and softner for unperfumed ones also wash POWDER is better in liquid form surcare liquid and softner are good ones. Speaking from experience this helped my skin feel better in about a week. No perfumed shower gel also use a cream like e45 and rub in after showering whilst still damp. Its important to note that chlorinated swimming water makes it worse because chlorine is extremely drying to the skin making more sensitivity. you can buy special 3 in 1 shampoo shower and conditioner from stores especially for washing away chlorine. People with candida also do not utilise omega 3 and 6 fatty acids very well without these the skin becomes drier and so does hair. Try taking a supplement to help you could even take a digestive enzyme with it to help absorption. Hope this helps somewhat I do feel your pain ive been there all these can help although I still have to cut the labels and scratchy tags out my clothes.. yuck.
