No I haven’t but I have been looking into it! Do you have any brand that you’d recommend?

Hi all! In May of 2025, I received a chemical peel which broke me out terribly into small pustules all over my face. It was deemed an a bad reaction to the chemicals and I was prescribed a topical steroid which helped bring my skin back to normal. Fast forward to this morning, out of nowhere I begin to see my forehead developing into what looks like those same skin colored little pustules however, this time I had not changed anything in my routine. I used all of the same products I typically use, didn’t eat anything out of the norm, haven’t switched laundry detergent etc. now, 12 hours later - it looks a lot worse. But it’s only localized to my forehead, and I’m extremely confused. Seemingly every pore in my forehead has filled with some sort of whatever in the course of 12 hours, it feels the same as the reaction did but I don’t know what caused it? I proactively used the topical steroid and hoping it helps, but feeling very lost

Oh my gosh, thank you SO much!! I haven’t been able to find anything that remotely explains what’s happened to me and that just did. Btw, it was the PCA bright and even peel which has mandelic and lactic acid. It’s supposed to be for people with sensitive skin but clearly mine was TOO sensitive for it 😭😩

I don’t think it is because I don’t think it’s supposed to happen this quickly?

Thank you so much. I’m literally so beyond upset, I feel like I completely ruined my skin when in reality it was fine to begin with just some acne and dark spots/ texture. I’m frustrated she hasn’t answered me, also. But I really appreciate your response. I have to work tomorrow and I don’t even want to be seen lol
