hi, do you ever had ur skin dry while pregnant? i try wash my face it still break out dry skin is there any i can fixed? i put lotion then later it still dry then i have to put again lotion on.

Answer 1

Your facial acne is a temporary thing ... caused by the hormones coursing through your blood thanks to that lovely bundle you're carrying. The acne will hopefully fade within a few months of birth. As for dry skin, try using lotions with Shea butter in them, and also try using a humidifier in your bedroom at night.

Answer 2

Washing it too much will dry it out even more. Find a good moisturizer for sensitive skin (pregnancy can make you prone to acne) use in the morning before applying makeup and then again after washing your face at night. I am a big fan of Estee lauder moisturizer, but there are many Wal-Mart type brands that will work just as well

Answer 3

Very common, it's the hormones in your body. Try a mild cleanser for dry skin. Invest in a good lotion designed also for dry skin, stay away from lotion with acylic acid(however you spell it)

Answer 4

im pregnant and i have dry skin but on my hands i also put lotion and it still dry i guess cause of pregnancy or weather i think its normal cause i had the same thing in my first pregnancy

Answer 5

Your baby takes allot from your body! Drink lots of water, sounds like you may be dehydrated a bit. Also try washing your face less often so the natural oils on your face can remain, and use a mild moisturizer.

Answer 6

I have used Mary Kay cleanser and moisturizer, and I still have a little dryness, but I ran out and had to use Neutrogena and it was awful! The Mary Kay moisturizer cream WORKS WONDERS!
