I have red dots all over my skin (its not razor burn) I have them on my arms and legs mainly. I have tried many types of creams including olay quench (that has worked the best) and i use moisterizing body wash (I have also tried many brands of bady wash) The thing is whenever I use the cream my skin feels really soft and smooth but I still see red dots. I was wondering what i could do to make them go away.
Like you, I tried many different moisturising creams and none worked. Then, one day I ran out and I used a moisturising foot cream from Boots. I used it in the morning when I got up and before I went to bed at night and within 3 days, the red spots had totally disappeared on my legs and almost gone on my arms.
I would suggest that rather than sticking to the normal moisturisers, go for a foot moisturiser. Mine was from Boots but I don't know if you are in the UK or US. If you are from the US, try to find a good foot moisturiser, preferably with seaweed proteins, as I think this may be what helped. If you live in the UK, it's Boots own Foot Moisturiser. A sort of turquoise colour in a clear plastic round tub. [ Vikki27's advice column | Ask Vikki27 A Question ]

But you should tell youre parents and see what they say but if that doesn't help....then i think you should go to a doctor or something [ Armina103's advice column | Ask Armina103 A Question ]

But do you think it could be bug bites?
Well whatever it is, you should get it checked out by a doctor if they dont go within the next few days.

I say give not applying anything a whirl and see how it turns out. If you're still breakin out, see a dermotologist. they specialize in those types of things.
