Recently I've been getting these really bad red bumps on my cheek and chin and they don't seem to be disappearing. This has been going on for 3 weeks now and I've b putting on tea tree oil on my face daily to make them disappear but there's no sign of it getting better. I recently purchased new make up I'm not sure if thats the cause. my boyfriend does constantly squeeze my cheeks so he does touch my face a lot, has anyone had something like this or know a cure please help xxxy

Shelley or Traci should know for sure. I would just try to keep your face as clean as possible and drink a lot of water to help cleanse the skin. Definitely don't want to pop them unless there getting bigger and if you do , try a warm washcloth on them first and squeeze them gently. Then apply a toner , I personally like diluted apple cider vinegar. Good luck honey

Do they itch?

Stop using the new makeup and tell your beau to stop squeezing your cheeks ( could be transferring nastiness resulting in the skin irritation). If the irritation clears up after you stop using the makeup then you have you cause. As far as the tea tree oil...I would stop using that as well and just focus on a gentle moisturizer till your skin clears up...especially if its due to a skin reaction from the makeup. I experienced the same from using MAC foundation and that's what I had to do to heal it...just kept it basic.

Is it Milia? I'm not qualified to say for sure but does anyone else think so?

I had something like this a new months ago a rash if defo not milia ( I have it) but I suggest to stop using the makeup and make sure your skin can breath and moisturise it at least once a day.

I can't say for sure, but it looks a lot like a skin condition I have (keratosis pilaris). I get small, red, bumps around my lower cheeks and chin sometimes. It happens when the skin gets plugged up. Does it feel rough? Has the weather been colder than usual? With me, the bumps form when my face gets exposed to cold air and dry environments (e.g., rooms with indoor heating). It gets aggravated when I touch the bumps with my hands. I would check in with a derm to make sure, though. I usually minimize the bumps by moisturizing with sheet masks and thick creams. To avoid it from forming again, I exfoliate regularly. But don't exfoliate while the bumps are still present, as doing so can aggravate them and cause scarring.
