Muzzleloader Problem

I shoot an older CVA .50 caliber Hawkins that has a 1:60 twist. I had not shot it for a year or so, and when I started shooting before the Muzzy hunt it was only at the range so I always wore safety glasses. I noticed I was getting powder spots on my right lens. It is apparently blowing back on me when I shoot. After alot of shooting I actually am getting a small powder burn on my forhead as well. It kind of worried me and thus I carried and wore safety glasses on my hunt.
Any idea what would cause this?
Thanks,
