How do I get rid of tiny bumps after chemical peel? (Photo)

Jababyk
I believe my recent chemical peel wasn't applied correctly. I had one other peel before this one with much better results. All was ok until about 2 days ago I noticed tiny bumps all over my face. After the peel I started using a new mosturizer with spf 30. I forgot to apply the mosturizer on Wednesday while I was in the sun. I am not sure if the bumps are due to the chemical peel, the new product or the sun exposure. What can I do to get rid of the bumps? I applied hydrocortisone will this help?
