stubble rash

Kissing scratchy face aftermath

Stubble rash is skin irritation caused by contact with short, rough facial hair—typically from kissing or nuzzling someone who hasn't shaved recently.

The prickly regrowth acts like sandpaper against softer skin, leaving redness or chafing around the mouth, chin, or cheeks: I woke up with stubble rash after last night.
