Best Answer

It could be any number of things.

-You could have had a little sunburn which occurs when the sun cooks the top layer of skin causing it to peel a few days after you received the burn.

-You could have a specific type of skin condition such as eczema that has different affects on different people, for example I get little red bumps when the seasons change.

-You could be using too much acne medicine.

-You could just have dry skin which can be easily cured if you put skin moisterizer everyday.

-Apparently it could be from an alergy that you have.

If none of theese suit your situation, or you want to find a cure, you should consult a dermatologist to receive a proper diagnosis as well as information on what you have.

Acne face dry?

Acne prone skin can also be dry skin, this is usually called combination skin. You have to use an acne wash, and to counterbalance the effects that has on the dry parts of your face you will have to use a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Talk to your doctor about this, he may be able to refer you to a dermatologist who can help.
