Pregnancy acne!!!

[Mousssy]

Hey current and future mommies!!! So I have never really had acne before (just a couple pimples here and there) but as soon as I got pregnant, it's as if my body decided to become a teenage boy! I'm full of acne on my face, down my neck and even on my back! I feel horrible and disgusting! It's like my face chemistry has changed it feels tougher, oily and out of no where my pores are huge!!! Help! I'm 8 weeks pregnant, does this ever go away and when?!? Also, anybody have any advice for how to maintain my face, neck and back in the mean time? I've been trying sensitive skin seabreeze but it's not working at all, washing my face twice a day, moisturizing! Nothing works! Any product or at home remedies would be great!!!! Thank you ladies!

I have the same problem! I'm breaking out so much! It's horrible. My hair, nails and skin are nasty dry brittle and acne everywhere I look like I have a dark mask under my eyes it's horrible. My crazy hormones! With my past 2 pregnancies that are boys my skin was perfect and glowing! My hair was shinny, healthy and full of body, my nails were thick and strong. So who knows maybe acne and all this is due to girls who I have heard still there mothers beauty... Who knows

I feel all your guy's pain. I had very nice skin, always clear except when I was expecting my period I would get a few. Now my whole face is just pimples and my face is very oily. Talk about pregnancy glow..

Coconut oil!!!!! I almost bathe in the stuff, it cleared me up in two days

Authentic African Black soap has worked wonders along with coconut oil for a moisturizer. Thinking about whither hazel for a toner. And I'm hoping this is a girl because I don't remember felling this ugly with my son.

Do not wash your face twice a day! I already have a bit of acne, once I got pregnant I get it on my jawline and on my neck a little. I wash my face once a day with a light exfoliat and use makeup wipes at night. Use witch hazel if skin is extra oily. It helps!

Do u wash with the coconut oil or put it on after?

Same here. Had beautiful skin my whole life, now I look like 15. Guess we can't have everything :-) I'll let u know if I find something that helps

Coconut oil! I swear by it. I was getting really bad, two days later, clear skin

I'm in the same boat. Went from having one or two from a period to getting 4-5 new ones a week being pregnant..gotta love how our hormones are going crazy..I would try and stay away from soap as that can dry your face out maybe making it oily also being pregnant careful what you use for creams. :)
