Skyrim SE blood texture is stuck on my face

[Nope!?]

I, for what ever reason, cannot seem to get the blood splatter textures off of my characters face.

I believe I had the same problem in the original Skyrim as well but this time it just won't go away.

 

I am using CBBE, the old version, with the game. With that said, I have no blood texture mods installed.

 

I've saving the game, rebooting, and re-opening. I've tried re-installing all mods. I've tried removing my armor then re-applying my armor. I've tried removing my armor, saving, exiting, and then coming back in....

 

It's a persistent feature... I'll give it that...

 

Does anyone have any ideas or experienced a similar issue with SE?
