What Can I Do To Reduce The Itchiness And Whiteheads Caused After The Use Of A Face Serum?

I tried a new face serum (vit C) 2 days ago and I am now experiencing rashes on some areas of my face. The rash is red, with small pimple-like bumps and lots of tiny whiteheads. I assume this is because of the vit C serum (which I used after my BHA lotion). What can I do to reduce the itchiness and whiteheads? How long would this rash last for?
