Pimples

Hi everyone,
I'm currently almost 13 weeks pregnant and have quite a few pimples on my neck and face.
I never had them before my pregnancy, and it seems to be getting worse now.

Are there others who are experiencing this or have tips on what I can do to reduce them or at least prevent them from getting worse?!

Thanks
Best wishes

    I mainly have this on my chin (now 7 weeks pregnant).
    I was already going to a beauty salon before, and they told me it's purely hormonal (she had it herself during her pregnancy).
    You can definitely keep your skin well cleansed (twice a day) and well hydrated, and of course use the right products and not just smear on whatever comes to hand—this can make it worse.

    I'm also really struggling with this on my face and shoulders.
    It's indeed purely hormonal. I used to wash my face morning and evening with a cleanser I bought at a beauty salon. After that, I use a cream from the pharmacy for pimples. I can also use it as a base before applying makeup. I wear makeup every day because I feel a bit self-conscious, and it helps the spots stand out less. It's quite an improvement compared to the beginning of my pregnancy. I'm now 35 weeks pregnant and hope they'll go away quickly after giving birth.
