I feel like a pimple face....

sept7fallbride · December 2008

I know it is probley my hormones but I use a biore face cleansing system that has always kept me clear.... I get a new pimple everyday... is there anything extra that I can do to try to avoid this? or am I stuck with pimples? anyone else have this problem too...?

Just call me "pizza face" So far, if I don't wash my face twice a day and don't drink lots and lots of water and eat chocolate, my face breaks out........I hate having high maintenance pregnant skin!

It is SO not just you... trust me.... ? ?my derm. tells me to exfoliate as much as possible (daily) and that usually helps me ? ?

I have the little annoying ones not that aren't noticable but still annoying. I just starting washing my face with a rice and honey face wash something natural and it does the trick some what... We all are probably just stuck with a "pimple face" because of the raging hormones.

I have not tried that... I will have to get something....

Ditto! It is sooo frustrating! I have a million tiny ones that you can really only feel on my forehead and they are driving me crazy! I also get the occasional larger one that pops up every now and then. Makes it a little embarassing when you are visiting family and friends over the holidays and they don't "know" yet. Hopefully it will clear up soon........?????

I told my uncle I was pregnant and he said " I know because of all the spots on your face" "You mean my zits!? Thanks..."

Ugh me too! I was using benzoyl peroxide (before BFP and a little after) but after all of the different stuff I have read I recently stopped. Now I'm just alternating between St. Ives Apricot Scrub and Dove Facial soap twice a day. It is not really doing the trick though...

Ugh, unfortunately you can join the group. This happened to me with my first pregnancy too and by the second trimester my face was clear again.

Good luck!

Me too. I'm getting the big ones that hurt when you touch them.

My saying for the past few months? I feel like a pubescent teenager who just ate a Hershey bar. I'll take all the glorious side effects that come with this pregnancy, but I do miss my clear skin!

yes same here- it hurts to touch my face and i have never had acne before-it's allllll along my jawline

i would get a few pimples around period time but nothing crazy- this is crazy- during christmas dinner (before we broke the news) my SIL comes up to me and was like what's wrong with your face? are you getting rosacea? she meant it in a caring way, but now i know it's that noticiable haha- she found out soon enough!

i swear on proactiv solution - it's been keeping my complexion immaculate - and they don't test on animals, either!

My face is horrible!!! My chin and jaw line especially... I had a facial last week and the girl told me that it's all hormonal of course and that it usually means you're having a boy because the rising testosterone is competing with estrogen??? I have never heard this before... that's just crazy right?
