Flaky skin?
My face recently in about 2-3 days suddenly become super flaky and the skin as if it's going to peel itself. My whole entire cheek is red and suddenly I got pimples. My skin is the non-oily type so I was very shocked. The texture of the skin is very rough, rougher than a sandpaper.

Have you used any new creams or soaps or masks or gotten a facial at a beauty parlour ? If yes to any of the above then visit a dermatologist near you . Without a thorough examination of your skin it is difficult to come to diagnosis and tell you What is wrong with your skin and why it is acting out. So my honest opinion is that you visit a dermatologist near you
. Till then the basic measures that you can take are restrict washing face to once a day with water only and use a plain moisturising lotion like cetaphil moisturising lotion. BUT visit an allopathic Dermatologist please.
