Breakout Since Pregnant

Hi Moms,

I am pregnant with my second child and since I have become pregnant, I my forehead has broken out. They are very, very small pimples that are under the skin but they are driving me crazy!! Are there any good skin care regiments that have worked for others? I don't know if I should try a scrub or exfoliating or would that make it worse? Has anyone else experienced this? HELP!! Thanks!!

What can I do next?

I started to get regular facials and it seems to work for me. My skin has done some crazy things since being pregnant and my son is now six months and I finally feel like it's getting back to normal. I also use Dermalogica products and love the results.

I had small little pimple like looking things badly on my temples and on my back during my pregnancy. I used a microderm abrasion product to help lessen the appearance of them...I cant tell you which of the 4 I used did the best but I felt they all worked equally. I tried Mary Kay, L’Oreal, Fragrant Lemon Peel and Aveeno. Still to this day I am using the Aveeno due to the fact it is the cheapest, and I can just get it off the shelf at the grocery store when I’m out. Now a few days ago my MIL gave me a sample of the Clinique one and I felt it is maybe a bit more gritty and seemed to work better, but of course I have no clue how much it is and I am not pregnant…lol

I am a Mary Kay Consultant so, of course, I tried Mary Kay first!! MK has a microderm abrasion set and I had to use it every other day during my pregnancy. It worked! If you want mor info PM me!

can't help with the breakout issue, but would like to see more info on your at home business opportunity.

Hi K.,
I swear by Ole Henrickson Tonic, the balancing cucumber one (olehenrickson.com). I used to get small bumps all over my forehead, I don't know if they were really pimples and I don't think were too visible to others but they drove me crazy, my whole forehead was bumpy. Back before I had a baby and could spoil myself every once in a while someone giving me a facial had me try it. After Jake came and I was trying to watch my money more (it's a little expensive maybe $30 bottle but it does last at least 6 months so not too bad), I stopped using it and the bumps came back so now this is my one luxery beauty product that I will always use. You don't need a lot, just a small splash that you pat over entire face in between cleanser and moisturizer. Maybe that will help...
