| Ive been using M2 refinisher 20% every other night and clarisonic for around 3 to 4 weeks and my skin has now got small bumps all over it. What do you think is causing this? |

| Are the bumps flesh coloured or inflamed? |

| And when did you start using either product? |

| I started using the M2 around a week before clarisonic. They are pink color and flesh color but not inflamed |

| I had a similar reaction when I first started using 2% BHA. It was sort of red and splotchy and I would have flesh-coloured bumps that resembled milia. You might be developing a similar reaction, not because of one, but because of both those products. I think you might be potentially irritating it like that |

| Sounds like dermatitis from over exfoliation. Probably the combo of both, your skin barrier has been compromised. I'd rest from everything for a few days to let your skin recover. |

i think your skin didn't able to manage both products and too harsh that made your skin irritated... i agree with Ava with wings... try to rest your skin and observe any difference everyday so you know where the irritant's coming from  good luck! |

| I'd go back to just using the clarisonic for at least a month before adding in the 20% |

I aqree, give your skin a rest from both and allow it to recover to it's normal state. |

| Hi, I'm also using the M2 20% in a day per day dosis for a month, I didn't have any problems so far and the results are very good. I also use Skin Doctors Powerbrasion Micro Dermabrasion System once per week. |
