Pregnancy acne anyone?

Hi!! Ok so my question is... Has anyone experienced pregnancy acne? I'm 10 weeks and wondering if anyone here has experiences it, when it ended and what you did or took that successfully worked. Not looking to get onto any mediations... Just home/ natural remedies and a better timeframe than "2nd trimester" IF it goes away.. Lol thanks!!

I had it in my first trimester as well. And not just on my face. I also had it on my back. I used clean and clear acne wash for sensitive skin. It helped so much. I would say it was noticeably gone when I hit around my 16th week.

Cleanser, toner, and moisturizer. Every morning and night do those 3 steps. Try an egg white mask also

I'm right there with you...had it first and second pregnancy too...I'm also 10 weeks with this one. I would be sure to wash at least one a say and I love love love st. Ives apricot scrub...doesn't completely get rid of completely but definitely helps. I can sadly say my first two pregnancies it didn't go away until after I delivered :(

I had it during my first trimester pretty bad. I washed my face every morning and night with simply clean. I had to stop using facial scrubs since I found that irritated my face even more. Come the 2nd trimester tho I was pretty much acne free.. got to love hormones
