Super dry skin??!

Question

I'm just shy of 14 weeks pregnant and noticing my face is REALLY dry. Like peeling dry - and this is despite my routine of Vitamin C serum and organic night cream, and moisturizer with spf during the day. Last night I even used a hydrating mask that has always done the trick before. But nothing is working. So now I'm breaking out AND my face looks like the Sahara. Anybody else go through this, or have any suggestions?

Answer

I've been using virgin coconut oil on my face and it has help significantly!

Answer

Mine is awful too. I can rub my hands on my forehead and flakes come off 😖 I use a lot of cocoa butter lotion, even on my face! I just apply it multiple times a day if needed.

Answer

This happened to me too! I have dry skin anyway, but pregnancy made it even worse. As far as my face goes I found that I just have to exfoliate a lot more than I used to. I just use a generic off brand apricot scrub, the product itself still works fine but I just use it more frequently. Then I use cetaphil facial moisturizer afterward and it seems to help.
