How do I treat a large looking burn on both of my cheeks from Retin-A cream? (photo)

kstevens
I believe I used too much Retinol cream on my face, with a moisturizer and woke up two days later with large, very tight and dray red areas on my cheeks. This is a photo, with makeup on, but you can still see the redness and swelling. The redness is VERY prominent without makeup.
