Good morning lybrate-user. You probably have developed an irritant contact dermatitis from improper usage of dettol. You need to have it examined immediately to rule out any secondary infection or pre existing dermatoses in the applied area. Kindly consult a dermatologist asap.

Dettol is a harsh soap and generally advised not to use on face as it has delicate skin. Stop it. Use moisturizer on face. Avoid sun exposure.
