My top recommendations for expectant moms with dry, acne-prone skin like me!


1. Start your routine with a gentle cleanser such as the Neutrogena Hydroboost Hydrating Cleanser

2. Use the Naturium Azelaic Acid 10% serum, which is great ingredient for acne-prone skin and safe in pregnancy according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

3. Use a moisturizing cream such as the La Roche Posay Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream

4. Finish off your routine with a mineral sunscreen such as the EltaMD UV AOX Elements SPF 50 sunscreen, which is also tinted so it won't have as much of a white cast as many mineral-based sunscreens can


For stubborn areas: Use the La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water before your moisturizer or use CeraVe Healing Ointment for dry spot treatment
