Anyone else’s skin really bad after first trimester?

Question

I’m 14w almost 15 and my skin has just gone to shit. My skin was pretty clear before I only got the odd spot and now it’s so unruly!! I spend so much on skin care and and I have all kinds of masks and nothing helps. I drink a ton of water naturally and it doesn’t do anything to help. Really knocking my confidence☹️

Answer

I don’t get pimples but my skin is dull and flakey. Even my Korean skincare isn’t helping it. Need to go in for a facial. Also, my hair has been shit since becoming pregnant.

Answer

Mine has gone to shit too. 
I’m usually super oily and now my skin is super dry and gets flaky if I don’t moisture right. I’m breaking out all over with big zits.  Hopefully it gets better soon.

Answer

🙋🏻‍♀️ I’ve heard it clears in the second and until then, I’m an ogre

Answer

Yes my skin is super dry and flaky and I have really bad hyperpigmentation going on right now I know it’s the hormones but geeze....

Answer

Mine is SOOOO bad. I've used stuff on my face forever and it's always worked. Now, since getting pregnant, even with using the same medicine, I look like I'm starting puberty again

Answer

Yup! My skin was pretty good before and now my chin and upper lip have taken a beating from zits. Calming down a little, but I think it's cause my skin got so dry with all the hormones.

Answer

Hormones...ugh. I am a Rodan + Fields consultant so when my skin started going wonky due my hormones I was able to easily change regimens and mix it up a little from what I normally do which I found really helped. I haven't had acne like this since I was a teenager, again thank you hormones. But found the sulfur mask really helped me and my OBGYN said that the sulfur treatment is safe when it's topical like that so it may just be finding something different and while you're already using.

Answer

Yes! It’s like I’m back in high school ): my poor little face

Answer

I learnt from my last pregnancy,  lotion,prenatals and drinking loads of water helped me.

Answer

Yup 12 weeks and it's horrible. My first it cleared up by now 😭 hoping it starts getting better very soon
