Face is breaking out in pimples! Is there anything that helps?

CrazyLady what moisturiser do you use?

[CrazyLady]

I use the avon maximum moisture super hydrating gel. I have super sensitive skin and it doesn't make me itchy or spotty. Plus it absorbs straight in! It's not greasy like a cream and I can't feel any residue when it's on

I had terrible pimples while pregnant with DD. I even had them on my back and I've never had pimples on my back! Nothing really helped TBH. I even tried Proactive (that one advertised on TV) which helped a bit but I sent it back as it smelt potent and bleached my good sheets and towels! I really didn't want to be using something that powerful on my skin although my OB had checked the ingredients and said it was fine.

Maybe try products that are specifically designed for oily skin. I use Dr Lewinns products now and think they are fabulous.

Ive been using olay cleanser for oily/sensitive skin, Im a bit sensitive too and cant use things like clearasil or some of these other pimple things as they sting my face.

Bugger it sounds like I'll just have to live with it for the next 5 months.

Did you all have them the whole way through your pg?

Sorry to say it but yes. The ones on my back cleared up in the second tri but I had a few pimples on my face at a time pretty much constantly until DD arrived -then all my pregnancy related issues magically disappeared!
