I woke up this morning with such a breakout, I feel like I'm a freshman in high school again. Gross. Does anyone know what I can use to help this situation?

I invested in a Clarosonic its amazing has kept my skin fresh and clean i used to get frequent break outs...but this might help down the road and overall your face just really feels clean not stripped try it!

I'm right there with you, ugh! I also use a Clarisonic and Murad makes a spot treatment that uses sulfur and no benzoyl or salicylic. I can't say I'm any better though.

I've been using tea tree oil from the Body Shop.  It is okay, definitely not as good as the regular acne products out there, but it is helping.

I also use a tea tree spy treatment product from Burts Bees!

When I was pregnant last time Before mc I bought witch hazel. That is all I use now. Works pretty well too.

I had the same thing, with my first and the first thing I did this time was buy a face mask. It cost about $5, I use it every other day, my skin's under control and I feel a little pampered, too

I also swear by the tea tree oil from body shop too.

The "acne gender test" says more acne is a sign of a girl because of the over production of hormones from another female being inside you... Idk but my face flared up sooo bad. I normally would only have 1 or 2 and right now I have 11 all over my cheeks and nose. With a few on my chin and forehead.. Its so hard to explain to people why my face is so flared up when we havnt announced we're expecting.. So I just said poor diet lol! Blame the bad greasy foods that I am not eating haha.

My face was terrible with my son.  It was the terrible cystic kind... so painful and I looked like a monster!  I.m only 5 weeks along so my face isn't bad, yet, but I'm trying to wash more diligently.  I'm using finacea which is supposed to be ok during pregnancy but i may switch to one of these recommendations!  Good luck and hang in there, mine def cleared up by the 3rd trimester.
