I though it was my moisturizer(loreal for dry skin 48hrs) so I switched to different moisturizers (cetaphil/jojoba oil/almond oil) and that helped but there are still quite a few bumps. Benzoyl peroxide helps for a little while but them stops working. Salicylic acid makes them worse. The problem is that they itch so i pick at them and make then many times worse. I don't know what to try anymore. I'm using witch hazel in lavender and that helps calm my skin but the bumps persist.

The first product was a salicylic acid foam cleanser, the second was a salicylic toner, and the third was a benzoyl peroxide lotion. (I have used salicylic acid before, so I don't think that was the cause of the reaction.) After two days of use, my skin was extremely dry and my eyes were swollen. I stopped using the benzoyl peroxide, but continued with the salicylic acid because I was out of town with no other products. After six days, I stopped using the products entirely.

I understand your advice is limited to the amount of information I had posted. I know you said 5% of the Benzoyl peroxide gel, but I only had 10%, and so I tried it. I used less of it than the size of a pea, reason being because I only have acne on my forehead (maybe because of my hair?) and on my nose (also the area around my nose). It immediately dried my face, it didn't peel or get red though.
I'll have to buy the 5%, and I'll quit using the 10%.
Hello,
You can apply benzoyl peroxide and some non perfumed mositurising lotion, Aveeno is a good option. You can also use Benzoyl peroxide lotion or gel once at bedtime. An amount of lotion the size of a pea should be enough to cover most of your face. If your skin becomes red or peels, you are using too much of the medicine or applying it too often.
I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing. Warm regards.
