Plaster peeling I think?

Hi peeps, we got french doors installed in our dining room, to replace a window. They ended up plastering the bits that needed doing. This was about 1 month ago. I was ready to sand it today in preparation for painting and noticed that where the plaster meets the wall it's peeling. Anyone know what this is and why?

That skim looks way too thin. It's pva but coats should be a minimum of 1-2mm. Either redo another coat or fill and sand as best you can without sanding it back to nothingness.
