Hey Guys! I have combination skin, thats normally dehydrated with dry flaky skin patches on the chin, around the mouth and cheeks. I noticed these bumps begin to form a couple weeks ago, but since starting the Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha beta universal peel (have only used it 3 times, in 2-3 day intervals) I noticed more bumps start to form. I also noticed my pores seem much larger than before. I have been putting on sunscreen before I leave the house. I don't wear makeup often at all because of the dryness and acne/bumps. My skin altogether seems more red and irritated. The only products I have used on my face this week are the peels, the purity facial cleanser and philosophy's microdelivery last week because I needed to wear makeup.

I also began taking Vitamin B2 for migraines, 400 mg tablets (prescription twice a day, but I have only been taking one because it is too strong of a dose) to prevent migraines. The doctor recommended two tablets but I am fasting so I am not taking in enough water to completely flush out all the excess B2. Any ideas? 
Thanks!

I wanna say it could be an allergic reaction. I would stop whatever you are using and give it a couple days to heal. Especially since you mention that you have dry skin. Could be getting irritated. I would give it a break

I have the same issue! But I also don't know what causes it or the solution.

Although I've recently switched to a more natural soap bar and it really has helped with the redness, but my bumps are still there.

I would speak with your doctor, but in the meantime stop using the peels. Some of the B vitamins can also cause a "flush". Is there a reason why you're limiting your water intake? Again, I'd check with your doctor, but dehydration can trigger/worsen migraines.

I had those too then I switched to Neutrogena acne soap and I love it my bumps are pretty much gone and not red at all. I love it you should give it a try it's only like 2.50 at Meijer!!

It kinda looks like your pores are getting clogged up, try exfoliating and toning
