Since you started using all three at the same time, it's hard to tell which one it might be. If it were me I would stop all three for right now and just rinse and pat on the oil until your skin calms down quite a bit. Have you used jojoba in the past successfully. It causes my face to get red and blotchy... I've never used the purple emu products, but any of the products I used from Sy caused a very bad reaction unfortunately. Anything " soap-like " in general, even supposedly " extra-mild, gentle or whatever " has always been too harsh and drying on my face. I would be red and blotchy within a few days too.
