I've had an easy 1st trimester with exception of one thing: acne. Has anyone found any good skin products lately? I'm trying to remember if it goes away in the second trimester? Ugh.

I'm getting some acne now and it's I remember correctly, with my first I broke out a ton but subsided later on, probably half way through the second trimester. don't have any recommendations for skin products but hopefully we get past this looking like a young boy going through puberty! lol
@girlwithglasses hey if you skip to the second page of threads on our board there is a thread about pregnancy skin! Some of the suggestions were witch hazel, clay masks, vitamin c, tea tree oil and sulfur. Also some say benzoyl peroxide is okay to use (ask your ob) so you might want to try that.

African black soap (bar) is amazing. I've suffered with acne for years and this is the best my face has been since switching to this a month ago. No cysts anymore
I used baking soda as a paste to wash with in the shower every day and then applied tea tree oil as a spot corrector during my first pregnancy. Thankfully my skin isn't quite so terrible this time around.
