[skin concerns] please help me save my face after ole henriksen youth oil destroyed it

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Here's the rundown: bought that pure truth youth activating oil 2 wks ago, stupidly used it probably too much. Noticed clusters of small red bumps appearing on my face last weekend and stopped using the oil. Went back to my regular routine (cetaphil for oily skin, red stridex). Only... The bumps seem to be getting worse/spreading. Since the only thing I've added to my routine lately is this damn youth oil, I'm blaming it.These bumps are in patches but may be spreading. Mostly gathered on the sides on my chin and under my eyes. They don't itch or hurt, and I think they can be popped but I've been trying to leave them alone/they are really small. It seems like they are getting dry-ish? Naively, I am hoping this means they are going away. Like maybe they have to get worse before they get better?? (Probably misplaced optimism). Also-I am almost positive they aren't milia.If anyone has any advice, suggestions, similar stories, I would greatly appreciate it. Wtf are these and what should I do?? I'm supposed to go see my long distance BF next week and the thought of going there looking like this makes me really sad (have even looked into switching flights to another weekend bc I'm insane). I left a message for my derm but not sure if I'll be able to get in next week. I've been googling this for days and can't find a similar reaction from this product so I'm not sure what ingredient did it to me.Oh yeah, I've got combination skin and normally it is very well behaved. I get the occasional zit but it's never that bad and they go away. We have a great relationship and IM SORRY I DID THIS TO YOU, FACE.P.S. I'm not hating on the ole henrikson. I'm keeping the bottle and want to try (gently) reintroducing it when I get my skin under control. It made the skin on my forehead look great, and I honestly am sad I had this reaction to it
