Moisturiser? Or just cream/lotion in general. I put anything like Vaseline, moisturiser when I blow my nose a lot.

prinzessin1988, do you generally have dry skin? Or is it just your chin? And how do you mean it hurts? Or itches?

Anyway, use Hydrocortisone cream. Apply only a little, works very well.

That would dry it up even more.

Avoid soap and scented products for a few days on your chin. And try not to splash water on it - when the water evaporates it dries the skin out even more which is what causes the stinging and itchiness. May sound gross but try rubbing vaseline onto it before bed tonight - it'll help retain some natural moisture and may be enough to kick start your chin back into its normal state.
