Step1
Wash gently with a mild soap or cleanser twice a day, and if you use moisturizer make sure it's oil-free. Also make sure to wash your face with your hands, instead of scrubbing with a washcloth. Scrubbing can make the problem worse.
Step2
Resist that urge to pop, squeeze or rub those pimples. Yes, it’s tempting, but it will only make the situation worse. It can cause the bacteria to spread and can leave acne scars.
Step3
Talk to your doctor before using any kind of medication, including over the counter ones. There are a several natural skin-care products that may be safe for both you and baby, but again, check with your doctor or health care provider.
Step4
Your diet can make a tremendous difference. Foods that contain antioxidants can help fight off acne. This is foods like salmon, dark green veggies, olives, berries, strawberries and extra virgin olive oil.
Step5
Exercise matters. Daily exercise will increase your circulation and blood flow to the skin, helping it to tone and become healthy. It also reduces stress, another component that can cause acne.
Step6
If you wear makeup, use products that are water based and labeled "noncomedogenic" or "nonacnegenic," meaning they won't clog your pores and cause breakouts. Be sure to wash off your makeup before going to bed, too.
