skin problems


Lately my skin has been so disquisting... It is covered in acne, thank god its not huge pimples, just small clogs. But my skin is SOOOOO dry! I used moisturizer, I just bought a vaseline intensive care problem skin moisturizer, but its still dry.

On top of that it is sensitive, and the dry skin doesnt want to come off. So I have tons of nasty dry skin sitting on my face

Does anyone have any good tips? Before I got pregnant I didnt have alot of acne, but I was going to try proactive, I dont know if its safe to use while pregnant though.

I've had the same problems since I found out I was pregnant. I've had bad skin my whole life (well, since puberty) so I'm kind of used to it, but things sure got a whole lot worse when I got pregnant. My skin is also dry, which is a new thing, so I try to moisturize every day as soon as I get out of the shower, that is the best time. As for the acne, I haven't found anything that helps. My face has gotten a little better. but my back hasn't.

I just try to keep up washing my face twice a week and using oil free moisturizer in the morning. I try to use face masks at least twice a week. My skin has become super oily since the end of pregnancy from all the hot flashes so my skin really acts up!
