So I've recently had a breakout and i thought it was keratosis pilaris. So I have been using glycolic acid and a eucerin 5%urea face cream. For a few weeks now. I feel like it has kinda worked but I still seem to have small red spots on my cheeks. Only my upper and lower cheeks are effected. My forehead is clear. My cheeks turn red when I'm stressed or angry. I do work in the city so pollution could be a factor. But I have never had this on my face before. Please could I get some advice

urea 5% is for hydrating skin, for breaking down keratin you need urea 20% or more
