Best facewash?

Question

I just realized that every facewash I have has salisylic acid in it. Anyone have a recommendation for a good facewash while pregnant?

Edit: My face is fairly prone to being oily. No breakouts, but I do get blackheads easily.

Answer

For a daily astringent I use diluted apple cider vinegar - you can't smell it once it dries and I've had basically zero blackheads or pimples since I started using it. I also use aloe as a moisturiser, and do a honey/sugar scrub once a week or so.

Answer

I love anything by Kate Somerville she's a dermatologist her stuff is great also Caudalie has great gentle face wash

Answer

I use 'Simple' face wash. No salicylic acid. But my actual favourite cleanser is honey. Apply a thin layer to your skin, wait a few minutes (or as long as you want to). Then rinse off in warm water. It cleanses and moisturises my skin nicely. If you need a scrub, add white sugar, cos the grains are smaller & gentler.

Answer

I use coconut oil

Step 1: gently massage the coconut oil to your face (~30 secs)
Step 2: apply warm towel onto your face (to open up the pores)
Step 3: wait 15-30 seconds or so and then lightly remove oil with washcloth-- no scrubbing!
Step 4: if you feel like you need it, splash some warm water to remove excess oil, but your skin should absorb most of it.

Answer

I use Angels on Bare Skin from Lush. It contains ground almonds lavender and Almond milk and it is the best face wash ever

Answer

I've always just used one with Benzol Peroxide instead of acid. I just look for one with a lower %. I think now I have a clean and clear one. I bought one specifically for pregnancy online and it didn't do anything for my breakouts. 2 days after switching back I was clear. All my babies have been just fine and my doctors and MW all have told me even a low %acid one is fine, I'm just extra cautious.
