I've been using the Aztec clay mask with apple cider vinegar for about 2 weeks now and I've noticed that my skin is reacting (a few small skin colored/red bumps mainly on my forehead). I'm not sure if my spots right now are from the mask pulling out the impurities like it should or if the mask is just making me break out. How long does the typical purging period last and how do I know if I'm purging or breaking out? Thanks so much :)

This literally is happening to me right now. I've been using it for months though so I think for me it's a breakout.
