Is it frostbite?

it's been cold for several days here, and i kept getting out and walking in that cold weather.for around 2 hours in -10 centigrad degrees. for 2 weeks. my face wasn't covered so it is now turned RED. and it's skin has lost its softness. it hurts when i wear aftershave. it is frostbite? how can i treat it? i want my beautiful skin back.

If it's red and hurts, then it isn't frostbite. Frost bite is white and numb. Avoid aftershaves with alcohol in them, which will sting chapped skin and contribute to dryness. Treat it with a gentle, alcohol-free cleanser, then moisturize before and after exposure to sun/cold/wind.

put lotion on it and keep it as warm as possible to prevent your face from falling off.
