I'm having a bit of a freak-out right now. I've always had a few breakouts after getting my back waxed, but this time it's way worse. My back and even my upper chest are completely covered in these tiny red breakouts. It's really worrying me. Do you have any idea why this might be happening or what I should do about it?

I've been working as an assistant professor at an engineering college, and I've been using a skin cream called My Fair for about two months. But just last week, I went to my village and spent a lot of time working under the sun in the fields. This made my skin turn extremely dark. My friend, who recommended the cream, said I should have used sunscreen when going out. Thankfully, my skin's back to normal with the same cream, but I'm really troubled by what happened. Can you give me some advice on how to prevent this in the future and how to deal with this dependency on the cream? Id really appreciate some guidance.
