I used to exfoliate so much like everyday and I would break out horribly. Once I stopped exfoliating my face started to clear up. Now I exfoliate only once a week. I used cerave pm moisturizer and it was really helpful when my skin was dry from too much exfoliation!

Just like Gina said, over exfoliating can contribute to breakouts. You don't want to do it more than twice a week, if that. And of I'd definitely suggest laying off the new foundation.

Giving your skin a few days to rest without makeup on may help aswell. I find if my skin begins to peel, putting makeup on it irritates it more.

A purifying mask + a nice nighttime moisturizer helps a lot for my acne/flakey skin!

Hope it clears up soon, and don't fret too much :D

I have dry skin as well.

I make sure I moisturize my skin before applying makeup & after I wash, exfoliate, use acne treatments, ect.

If I'm not going anywhere special, don't wear makeup. (You most likely wear makeup: Monday-Friday , well now your skin is only given 2 days to repair!)

Switch back to your cream foundation if it was working well for you before

Don't over-cleanse your skin. You'll just dry it out & it's not good!

Uhm, yeah. That's about all my tips ~ hope I helped!
