AH! help. face.skin. problem.?

i dont have bad acne at all. but i started washing my face with this new soap which was obviously way to strong. becuase it dried up my skin sooo much that there is this layer or skin on my face that is wrinkly and hard... and it like peels off if you really try... so i started to peel off and there is normal skin underneath...and when i touched the fresh skin it hurts and is really sesitive. and burns . but it hurts so bad to peel it off. i tried exfoliating. but nothing seems to work. and when i put lotion on it to mostuirze it just seems like its getting more wrinkly* and harder to peel off. what do i do..... home remedies. ....anything!
