My skin has gone crazy since i got pregnant, breakouts all over my chin and forehead. Im scared to use my usual products now incase the ingredients arent safe. What did u all do for this?
I avoided strong creams and stuck to mild cleansing and a light moisturizer. Some acne creams arent safe in pregnancy, so dont pick random ones. If its really bad, ask your gynac or a skin doctor what is safe to use.
My app warned me to avoid retinol and salicylic acid products during pregnancy actually, which I didnt know. I switched to a basic pregnancy safe routine and drank more water. It improved slowly, just be patient.
I felt so low about my skin in the first trimester, breakouts everywhere because of hormones. I just kept it simple with a gentle face wash and lots of water. It calmed down on its own by second trimester, hang in there.
