Morphology

eruptional = eruption (transparent) = erupt + ion + al

This is a regular adjective derived from 'eruption', and the sense relating to skin outbreaks is still compositional.

Etymology

Eruptional comes from erupt, from e- 'out' and rupt 'break'. Imagine the skin 'breaking out' in spots or rashes, which is why eruptional describes skin eruptions.
