[Product Question] La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 makes me feel ill the next day - anyone else experienced this?

Product Question

If I apply LRP in the evening to my T-zone (not close to the eye area in any way), I wake up feeling ill. My eyes are puffy, as if I have a stuffy nose or something similar. Not just puffy, though; I can't quite describe it, but it makes my eyes feel as though you are so ill that your eyes just have this intense desire to be shut and sleep all day.

I don't know how to avoid it. I clocked months ago that the cream was the issue as to why I kept waking up feeling this way, but even when being careful about applying it and not putting it anywhere near my eyes, I still wake up feeling like this.

My skin doesn't hate it, though, so I don't feel like it is an allergic reaction, which it otherwise sounds like. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
