Peeling: It sound as though the cream you are using that irritates your skin has caused an exfoliative dermatitis. This inflammation of the skin lead to desquamation (shedding) or the outermost dry and irritated layers of your epidermis. Try a good moisturizer like cerave and avoid those irritating products.
