The area around my mouth gets so itchy and irritating. Furtunately I’m not pale otherwise the redness would stick out so badly! I feel sorry for you. I went to the doctor and they prescribed me a type of hydrocortizone ointment as well as a type of selsin blue(dandruff shampoo pretty much) to lather on my face. You should really get it checked out before you end up getting mad and scratching your face and then it will leave pock marks.
I’m not pale but I have suffered with the same problems as you and the specialist I saw suspected it was alcohol in products I had been using, especially face cleansers which seemed to make it worse.
The paleness could be and iron deficiency but there are usually other symptoms as well such as constant tiredness.
Of course, if your going through a huge amount of stress at the moment that could be causing it too.
