So I am about 9.5 weeks postpartum. Prior to pregnancy I didn’t have any skin issues. Maybe an occasional blemish here or there and my overall complexion was kind of uneven but nothing crazy. I could fix it with just a light powder. During pregnancy my complexion was perfect - no blemishes at all and my skin tone was even and flawless, which I know is pretty normal with the “pregnancy glow”. However, now I’m really struggling. I am sure it’s hormone related but I don’t know what to do to fix it. I have blemishes...mostly on my chin but also some tiny ones on my cheeks. And my overall skin tone is so different than before. My cheeks are extremely rosy pretty much all over and the rest of my skin is kind of blotchy. I’m having to use a regular foundation and it still looks uneven and I can see the redness.

What can I do to help this?!?! I’d rather not just pack on makeup because I’ve always been more natural. Is there anything I can do to even things back out again and get rid of the redness?! I’ve tried acne face washes and all they do is dry my skin out, they don’t actually help the problem.
