Im one tretinoin cream to peel of skin layers to clear up my acne and now the skins coming off and it looks disgusting foundation just makes it look worse.... any help i also have a 8 wash?

I use a peel balm called Phaze. I used to get chemical peels and was given this to use after the peel. It has a healing effect on dry, raw skin. I believe it also has cortisone that helps with the burning/itchy feeling. I normally have very oily skin and do not need moisturizers. However, since starting Retin A, I've used the balm quite frequently. It's the only moisturizer that I have found that doesn't break me out. I use the balm and then use mineral powder instead of foundation. Hope it helps!
