Skin Nightmare

So I had posted previously how I'm excited to try my new Laneige products. Unfortunately, it doesn't turn out to be a good experience at all. In fact, it's a terrible nightmare! I'll just have myself to blame for having the greed to try new fancy (and most importantly Korean) products. I'm like brainwashed to accept that everything Korean = Daebak!! Haha...thanks to my Kpop addiction!
But 1 lesson learnt- never ever try it on your face!!!
I used to be pimple and acne free, the envy of all my friends and colleagues. Although I'm dark skinned, my skin is soft and clear. Until I cross path with Laneige and the nightmare begins. It started with a few pinkish dot believe to be pimples then on both sides of my end cheek. I stopped using rightaway but the worse is yet to come. I couldn't remember clearly what I did after that living in agony for the past months for having terrible acne all over my face. By that, it means a very reddish covered with acne face- not a spot to be missed- all over my face right below my eyes.
It got so ugly that my boss even told me to seek specialist help. That was nearly 3 months ago.
So I finally went to a specialist one day, took some medication and cream and I can safely and gladly say that my condition had recovered. My face is still a little bit reddish with some pimple dots but it's not entirely pimples covered like before though I secretly hope that one day, my acne and pimple free day will come back to me.
I still do not know what is the main cause of this so called "Eczema"- as what the specialist say it is. My GP says it's allergies. Whatever it is, I only remembered using Laneige and it turned out like this. If I stay true to Clinique...will this happen too?
