>>5409409I'd rather not, I don't post pics of myself on the internet. Couldn't really give you a good sense of it in a picture without showing the whole face, anyway.
Just imagine a face swollen basically from the cheeks up (thickest swelling is on nose, cheeks, forehead, eyebrows), with a red rash everywhere that extends even behind the ears. Cover that with dry, dead peeling skin and you have me right now. At least I have some stuff to properly treat it. Calamine lotion and benadryl wasn't accomplishing shit.
Guess I've learned my lesson. "Eh, the safety data sheets don't apply to me, I can do this." -thbbbbt-
I probably would have been fine if I was wearing proper face protection. Went back and did a color test with clear resin and my blue oil paint that I finally found (pic related, may be too solidly blue) and noticed that the already irritated skin was reacting to the fumes. I think it was more contact than fumes, since I was screwing around with the solid stuff pretty carelessly five days before with no reaction, but either way I'll be sure to do it right next time.
