It seems like I've been sick all season! Once I get over one thing its not long before I come down with something else. hopefully by the end of flu season I can get some relief but right now I have a head cold that leaves my face sallow and swollen, my eyes red and my combination skin dry and irritated. Does anyone know what I can do to help um look less zombierific? Maybe a homemade face mask for my tired, stressed out skin?

I'm actually going through the same thing. I like to do a steam therapy, turn your shower on and breath in the steam of the hot water. It's good for your skin and will open up your sinuses. After that moisturize your face with your favorite moisturizer, and get 2 spoons and put it in the freezer or just get an ice put and wrap it in a towel and place it under your eyes or where ever your poofy. Same thing can be done using the chilled spoons. ( which I recommend because they are rounded and won't clog your pours as much) the only other thing I do is put some petroleum jelly or aloe around my nose to ease the sensitive skin from all the wiping and blowing. Also put some Vaseline or chap stick on your lips keep them from getting too chapped. It goes a long way and dose make a difference. After I do this I throw alittle concealer under my eyes or where ever I think I need it and I look as good as new. Hope you feel better :p.
