Q. I am getting crazy breakouts lately and I am very beauty conscious. A lot of people have told me that proactiv doesnt work and isn't the best for pregnancy. Does anybody have any suggestions?
A. Proactiv isn't the best for pregnancy...it has ingredients in it such as parabens, benzoyl peroxide, and urea that aren't great for pregnancy. There are specially formulated products that have pregnancy-safe ingredients in them and that work against pregnancy acne. If you have oily skin, try Acne Clearing Facial Wash and Organic Citrus Blemish Lotion. Dry skin, try Facial Scrub for Pregnancy Acne and Face and Body Cream for Pregnancy Acne. Combination skin, try Organic Fruit Face Wash and Organic Citrus Blemish Lotion or Face and Body Cream for Pregnancy Acne. You should see blemishes clear up in 3 days and you can be worry-free, since none of the ingredients are associated with reproductive or fetal disorders.

How do I get rid of acne? Got acne for the 1st time during pregnancy. Acne located on forehead, chin, cheeks?
Q. I always had beautiful skin my entire life then once I got pregnant, my face, chest, and back were affected by acne. I tried proactiv and other products; however, my skin only dried out. In dier need of a solution. What do I do?
A. Beware of using any products for acne unless they have been prescribed or recommended by your doctor. People make all kinds of suggestions about the best thing to do to cure acne. Some cures I�ve heard include putting oatmeal, honey, lemon juice, tea tree oil, cucumber, vinegar, milk of magnesia or toothpaste on your face. Practically every cosmetics company and company that makes personal care products makes something that is a �sure cure� for acne. If we think about this, and use some common sense, we have to come to the conclusion that there is no quick or easy cure for acne, because if there was it would be well known and doctors would be telling everyone about it.
Numerous companies make a lot of money persuading people to buy products that at worst will make the acne worse, and at best may help some people a little. Often fewer products are better. People often make their acne much worse by using too many products. There really is no quick fix for acne. Don�t spend a lot of money on products just because their ads say that they will cure acne. Your doctor is the best person to ask for help, and he or she may recommend some prescription medication or non-prescription treatment that may be suitable for you..
There are some very simple and basic things you can do that cost nothing. Keep your face or any other area affected by acne very clean. Any mild antibacterial soap will help with that. Rinse the area well to remove all soap residue. Drink plenty of water � it really does help to clear up acne. Eat a nutritious diet and get enough sleep. A healthy life style will make a difference. Try to reduce the stress in your life � stress contributes to acne, so also probably the more you worry about the acne and focus on it, the worse it will be.
Probably the most useful and effective things you can do are to apply hot compresses to pustules and cysts and never to pick or squeeze pimples. Playing with or popping pimples, no matter how careful and clean you are, nearly always makes bumps stay redder and bumpier longer.
Here are a few informative links with additional ideas about preventing and treating acne.

A. Acne
Maintain a routine. Most acne treatments take time to work. It usually takes between two and eight weeks before you see any significant improvement, so you are going to have to be patient. Once you've gotten your acne cleared up, it's important to continue with the treatment that's working so it does not return.
If all else fails, contact a doctor. Mild antibiotics that are available only by prescription can help reduce acne. Keep in mind though, that the widespread overuse (taking antibiotics when you really don't need them or for something they don't treat) and misuse (not taking medication for the specified amount of time) of antibiotics has led to the development of multiple antibiotic resistant bacteria. That means that the antibiotics won't work for the things they used to (including your acne).
