    My face is horrible right now. I'm literally embarrassed to be at work and to look at my husband. I've been told by so many people, " your face broke out bad" then they give their advice on what I should use. Which sometimes is helpful but being told tjayt by so many people has seriously knocked my self-esteem to the floor, and it's effecting my relationship. I just needed to vent.

    My face was glowing the first couple of weeks, but now my face looks like a peanut pattie. Everyone tells me how much my face has broken out. I don't feel so pretty these days. I hope all this acne leaves after I have the baby!

    Hi not sure if this will help but mine has done the same I'm 23 weeks, I've tried all the creams and potions but the only ring that seems to help is salt and lemon water strange maybe lol I use a pad and cleans my face and kneck with it, has helped for me and all natural. Then I use the body butter cream which helps reduce scars. Worth a try hope it helps :)

    Anyone have extremely dry lips and skin. The lips are the worst though, I have tried different chapstick and my lips just become white and flaky. What can a person do?
    I know this may not be as bad as acne, but they hurt too!

    I'm having acne as well as dry lips and skin! I've also tried Chapstick, Vaseline and my make up brand MAC's (which I haven't been wearing do too acne) lip prim and prep. Nothing seems to work for me!

    Hi dear I know how you feel with my first pregnancy I had pimples like crazy and now with my second pregnancy I did too but I bought a natural acne control wash from St Ives and it's super in expensive I also only use bare minerals power make up and a scrub once a day from st Ives as well is made of apricot and it has helped a lot I avoid cream base make up to avoid a that greasy feeling and wash and moisturize your face twice a day also make sure the moisturizer is also natural and not too greasy good luck
