Acne/blemishes in first trimester!?

Question

Hi ladies!
Okay so I'm sure some of you can relate, my skin has been freaking out this week (I'm only 5 weeks) and I've never had this probably (only as a teen) I know it's hormonal but being pregnant we can't use anything with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide in it....which is in all acne/blemish products! 
Currently I'm only using tea tree oil, it's helps but nothing to shout about lol

Have any of you tried any natural home remedies or have found products that are safe and actually work? HELP!!!!

Answer

Ugh I'm having the same problem, my face has never looked so terrible. I also just got a huge cold sore from all the hormones! I look like a train wreck lol!

Answer

Same here! I have never had acne, and only an occasional blemish. But this is ridiculous! I’m going to try these suggestions! Thanks ladies

Answer

I use Noxema. 8 weeks 3 days.. I don't get break outs. Ever since I got pregnant, I started to break out. Hoping soon enough it'll stop.

Answer

Ugh it's terrible! I'm like a 30 year old teenager. I haven't tried anything I just gave in to the acne.

Answer

I had very bad hormonal breakouts the first 5 weeks and my dermatologist put me on a topical called Onexton. He said it was safe to use during pregnancy, you should ask your Derm. If they recommend the same for you. Tea Tree oil wasn't strong enough for me and I was still breaking out while using it. I love the natural appeal of tea tree products, so I use that as a cleanser and clearing lotion every other night so I'm not using Onexton every night. :)

Perfectly posh has all natural stuff that works ☺️

Answer

A few times a week, I use a combination of baking soda and cinnamon. I blend it into a paste in the palm of my hand. The baking soda cleans and exfoliates and the cinnamon reduces inflammation. It helps a lot!

Answer

I don't know if it's safe for pregnancy but murad is the best stuff I've ever used but it's pretty pricey but you can get a month supply but it has lasted me almost three. I love it!

Answer

Omg I'm having the same issue !
