Someone washed their butt with the washcloth before you washed their face now you have fecal bacteria disease on your face. It will take about 2 months to clear up, then you will be ok.

Sounds like the CLean N Clear over dried your skin. I had the same problem. I switched to Neutragena Oil Free Acne Wash. No Benzoyal Peroxide but keeps my skinn clean, but not over dry.
It will take about a week for your skin to get back to normal.

It just sounds like you have sensitive skin, you need to find a gentler face wash that's specially designed for sensitive skin, it's probably just that clean and clear is too harsh on you.

What were the ingredients in the face wash? Benzoyl peroxide can cause dryness. Tretinoin can cause both redness, dryness and peeling, especially if overused.

You might be allergic to whats in the face wash...don't buy that again or use it again....go back to what you were used to.

maybe the wash rag had other stuff on it. make sure you use a clean one every time.
