I always have mine. If I'm under fluorescent lights or sunlight for more than half an hour it gets redder and hotter. Any longer than that and it can become purple.

The rash covers your cheeks and bridge of the nose. Looks like wings of a butterfly. Mine goes down my neck too. It gets hot and really red.

My face gets hot and I have little patches of red on my face. But not a butterfly shape. Not across my nose bridge. My rashes happen on each side of my face usually a little below my eye leve to the side of my eye.

Is this how it starts or could it be something else or could t be a form of it?

I've never had it turn purple, but I have it all the time and it gets worse in the sun

Thanks ladies...yes Zora i get it on my neck too....and im under florescent lights all day....im really thinking it could be blood pressure too cuz when i get red in the face i check my bp and its high...so i thought there was a connection.
