How do I get rid of these bumps from an allergic reaction to latex kitchen gloves?

Silly me didn’t pay attention and bought a pair of latex dishwashing gloves. I’m allergic to the powdery latex substance in the gloves. I used them and now I have itchy bumps all over my arms, neck and face (I guess I touch my face a lot!) They aren’t that visible, but I can feel the hundreds of tiny little bumps. I stopped using the gloves 5 days ago (only using them once) and have used cortisone cream on the rash, but nothing has worked. What are some other home remedies to use? The allergic reaction isn’t so severe that I need to go to the doctor. I just need some relief.
Not just the powdery substance…the actual latex glove itself as well.
