I could deal with the breakouts of little pimples I was getting but the things invading my face today are like freaking mountains!!! I'm so self conscious about them at work and it's grossing me out Chat Icon

What is safe to use? My sister said tea tree oil has worked great for her but is it safe during pregnancy? Anything else you recommend?

Thanks so much!!

My skin was terrible when I was pregnant! The only thing that helped me was the Pretty Mommies Skin Care Line. It's expensive but was totally worth it for me, I still use it and DS is 6 months old.

My doctor has told me in the past that Proactiv is safe to use. I dont in the first trimester. Try witch hazel.

I used tea tree oil as a spot treatment when pregnant because it was safe to use. it didn't work miracles for me, i still had bad skin when pregnant, but it was one of the only things without a no-no ingredient

Unfortunately, nothing topical really works for hormonal acne, which it likely is. If u want to give it a shot a natural solution is to use a hot steam towel on your face to open your pores then a little tea tree oil mixed with coconut oil (tea tree can be harsh on the skin). Then rise and repeat. Time will probably be the best remedy.
