that's why, if it only covered your eyes, you exposed your face to near sun strength energy from that thing for 45 minutes

its a wire feed mig..... yea dude it does suck... and hirts too. . idk if its the gas because i had a fan going, and it dident really get on me at all... i am thinking its like a sun burn.. i went to a friends who also welds, and asked him if it can burn you like the sun can .. and he said it does..... so idk?? its wierd because i usaly have a full face mask, but i was teaching my brother how to wield and, i let him use it.. so i had one that looks like swimming gogles...so my face is never exposed to the wield lite...but what i dont get is, why me arms never get like this.. i allways ware short sleve shirts.. and thay are a lot closer than my face... so idk??
o the mask kinda looks like this >  |

 ouchy. i hope it's nothing bad.. if all else fails, aloe works nicely on sunburns... don't know if it would apply to you though |

the skin on your face is a lot more sensitive than the one on your arms and body. it's almost as sensitive as the one on your private parts

careful using moisturizers, it could cause the skin to bubble, as it is already trying to sweat (more than likely) and the aloe may trap it (ive seen it on sunburns lots of times)...and get ready for it to peel like a mo fo
