Hey all - just wondering if you've tried any of the pregnancy face washes, and what do you think of them? I'm considering getting the Belli Anti Blemish Face Wash, and possibly the Belli face lotion (the Healthy Glow Facial Hydrator). Right now I'm just using the Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser (doesn't have salycilic acid etc.).

    EWG's Skin Deep database lists a bunch of products and gives them safety ratings based on their ingredients, as well as breakdowns of the individual ingredients and the cause for concern regarding those ingredients.

    The Belli Acne Clearing Facial Wash was given a "2" over all (smaller numbers are better).

    Your Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Facial Cleanser was given a "5".

    That's a really interesting website - thanks!

    Has anyone tried any of the pregnancy face washes... did they help with the pregnancy acne? Hope you're all doing well!

    I use all of the Yes To products. Like "yes to carrots, blueberries,etc. They smell great and are gentle on your skin. Currently using yes to grapefruit face scrub, and yes to carrots body butter to help prevent stretch marks.

    using my clarsonic brush with my cleanser seems to help my skin. But I am still getting stubborn, hormonal acne along my jawline, some of them hurt!

    I just use my regular Philosophy facewash with my clarisonic, but I also scrub my belly and use Bella B's Tummy Honey Butter. Never too early to start, and I used this throughout my last pregnancy and didn't get stretchmarks.

    Nice. Thanks ladies - good info. I also just bought some apricot scrub and have used that maybe once a week and it seems to help a little.

    I've been using the Palmer's massage cream and belly butter as well. I really love the smell of cocoa butter.
