acne breakouts in summer

It's not acne though more like allergic reactions to bites... But they all look different and no one else is getting bit. Could yours maybe be heat bumps?

I just started breaking out badly in my nose and my chin just started idk what todo omgee.

I never got acne until getting pregnant, and now its terrible. I've found that Stridex wipes work wonders if you'll use them regularly. They're pretty cheap too. Just, be cautious...I am having to use them on my face, chest and back, and have recently found stretch marks on my boobs...so if you're.having to do more than your face, try to use the wipes and still lotion.

I found an all natural soap store in my town I have to buy two separate products of theirs and use one in the morning and the other at night. When I ran out of one of them my acne came back. I've tried everything else but those are what work for me.:/ its all trial and error.

s) heavily, I used to breakout. But not like real acne, but close enough to look like pimples. I only remembered this question as I seen a meth addict yesterday on t.v. and you know how they get those crystal sores all over and pick at them? Kind of the same idea, only not sores more like acne. Now mind you, this was only if I was using heavily, 6 to 10 a day. Heavy use for me... Thanks for your feedback!

Has anyone had any bad breakouts while being pregnant?? Normally I get bad breakouts around my period, but haven't. Only odd thing is ive noticed breakouts on my chest area & usually I breakout on my face.

I've been noticing a lot more acne all over my neck, but mainly the front (super visble) and right around my hairline on the back. Also been getting a lot of weird, random "scabs" all over my scalp. Never had these problems before pregnancy. I know acne is normal, but i haven't gotten any on my face. Is any of this normal? More concerned about the "scabs", because i dont scratch my head much, but when i do, i find these. Any advice is welcome. Thanks!

So I'm 21weeks today, but ever since I was about 16weeks I've had major acne breakouts!! When do they end?? I've never been one to have acne breakouts and now its just irritating Me so so much! Ugh!! When is it supposed to end?

I am currently 18 weeks pregnant. I never really experienced break outs ever in life. Now I randomly broke out all by my hair line, some on my cheeks, but all over my back! Is this Common???!

Hello, The problem of enlarged pores on face or facial pores is commonly associated with excessive oiliness and acne. The excessive oiliness of the skin is in turn triggered by the hormonal changes in the body.The black stuff that you notice can be due to collection of dus or grime. Large pores can be easily dealt with proper cleansing and frequent toning and moisturizing of the skin. Other treatments to consider include microdermabrasion, skin resurfacing lasers and chemical skin peels.

So, wondering if any other mommies had this and what they did to help...I'm currently 17 weeks and since probably week 10 I have had the worst bacne I've had in my life. It's mainly my upper back, and slightly on my shoulders and it drives me nuts and with fixing to be summer, cute maternity tanks are just not sounding too good.

So what is good for breakouts while your pregnant I am having some horrible acne breakouts the past few weeks.

I have the same problem in the summer and it really is upsetting because i love to swim in the sea:-( I live in Malta and every summer it is the same. It's definately the salt water here because if i don't swim for a few days then the spots go away. There are lots of tiny whiteheads on my chin and my nose, forehead. I don't want to have to stay out of the water all summer again :-( Any suggestions would be appreciated please...

s dangerous to take something *orally* for acne (unless approved by a doctor), but using something topically (on your skin) is typically safe. if you feel uncomfortable, talk to your OB about it though. I've used clearasil my entire pregnancy.. 23w4d & our baby boy is kicking my ribs as I type this!! lol good luck!

I have the same problem. Never in my life have I had so many zits. It was worse in my first trimester and now that im in my second I still get em just not as much. I use noxzema facial cleanser and it works good for me. I also try to eat healthy.

Hello, I'm a seventeen year old guy, and up until a couple months ago, I've been a pescetarian (I eat fish, eggs, and dairy products, but no chicken, beef, etc) for four years. I have never had any problems with acne at all. I'd get a pimple here or there, but nothing very serious. People even used to talk about how clear my skin was.

Pure Aloe vera gel is great for all skin conditions, acne included. When your skin is in a healthier state, exfoliating once or twice a week is okay. But until then, try to avoid any irritations.

I have never had acne on my face and now that I'm pregnant I have so many breakouts. What can I use to control it bc I know that it is not going to go away?

I've always eaten healthy but the last year or so I have really buckled down and paid very close attention to what I've been eating and of been exercising on a pretty disciplined regimen. I've gained about 10 or so pounds since I've started a stronger diet and exercise program (not muscle, my clothes are not fitting) and within the last few months my face is been breaking out really badly.

ok so I get it that everyone whose feeling a bit bigger than usual, it's a big deal and you feel terrible! But I am not sure you can feel worse with pregnancy acne plus you're growing from all directions!!' I have suffered with the acne from week 6! I'm now 23 weeks!!! It almost all dissapeared in weeks 21-22. Then suddenly I look like Mosquitos attacked me! It's humiliating, beyond the bedroom with hubby!! at work, in public, everything!!

I know there have been a number of posts, but did anyone suggest anything that works and is safe? My face and (t.m.i.) back are disgusting... I have NEVER had such bad acne in my life! Thanks ladies!

I hv bad acne usally I dnt but pregnancy brings the opposite I evn hv acne on my chest and back which I never have! Once in a while I break out but this whole pregnancy I hv acne all the time.

I believe the correlation comes from the release of androgen hormones in your body when you rapidly lose fat. While there are no studies confirming or denying that there is an increase in acne breakouts while taking phentermine, enough people have experienced it, to provide a definite correlation.

Have you eaten anything out of the ordinary or used any new lotion or cream? A change in diet is usually the cause of my breakouts-- and I normally have very balanced skin as well. Usually the culprit is too many oily foods one week or taking too many oily supplements/vitamins that throw my pH off balance. Also overwashing/scrubbing skin can take off the protective layer, exposing your pores to bacteria and causing breakouts. This is another issue I've experienced myself.
