Skin is Grey 12 Hours After 25% TCA Peel, is this Normal?

I applied 25% TCA peel to a test zone on my face. Did not use the alcohol recommended but don't know what that's good for but removing excess oil. Left it on a part of the forehead for 3-5 minutes. It didn't hurt much. Applied to a temple. It frosted, stung lightly (kind of felt good) and I washed it off for at least 2-3 minutes and went to sleep with some white frosting still on my face. 12 hours later, it's still gray. I used non-pore clogging Neutrogena lotion on it. Is this normal?
