Spots

[Emma58]

Can anyone recommend some thing that gets rid of spots since becoming pg I have developed spots!!
I have tried the usual like Clearasil but they just either make em worse or dry out my skin. At the moment I am using Nivea face wash but i just keep waking up to another yellow zit!! sorry TMI.
I don't know what to try next

Sorry hun, if you are anything like me the only thing that really worked was time. I was really really really really really spotty up until about 7 months.

Tea tree did ease it a bit but didnt totally get rid. Wilkos do tea tree wipes for 99p which are great and smell lovely

OMG 7 months!!!!
I've tried using the facial wipes and they seem to make my spots worse also. Looks like i'll just have to put up with them.

In Boots they sell a drying lotion called Bye Bye Blemish - you apply the pink stuff in the bottom with a cotton bud and sleep with overnight. Have found that pretty effective.

A bit random this tip but if ur deparate lol- I dont get many spots but occassionally will have just one big one so its dead noticable. I use a dab of that "waterless hand wash" gel u can get, its full of alcohol to kill germs on ur hand and its dead strong, it dries the spot up over night and gone everytime.

Its strong tho so I would never suggest covering ur face it in- just individual spots as the alcohol it very good in it.

Lush do special face masks and bars for spotty and all other types of skin and they have good reviews. If you go in to the shop and ask for advice they are really helpful(in Plymouth anyway). If you havn't got a Lush near you then you can buy most things from their website. I have put the links below to a couple of products that might be worth a try.

dermalogica. i cannot reccoment it enough.

I suffered badly through my teens with acne and discovered dermalogica at age 20 and its been the best thing since sliced bread in my life. i get the odd pimple at my period but other than that my face is spot free and so clean and glowing xx
