 |
|
| Hi, i need help. I am 16 weeks pregnant, and everything is fine with the baby. However, i never had dry skin, except in some weather conditions (snow, winter combination), but now i started to nice dry patches on my face. Could this condition with dry patches be in some sort of connection with pregnancy? |

It's possible -pregnancy influences skin changes, and maybe it causes dry patches on face too.
I have dry skin (and sometimes even small patches). I apply honey on face- it's a excellent moisturizer. Just apply in thin layer and then wash off after 10 or 15 minutes. Some use egg yolk, but i find honey better. |

Do not use products that contain alcohol, and never wash your face with hot water. Always just lukewarm water.
p.s. changes happen during pregnancy... not all have healthy pregnancy glow  ask your gyn, i am sure s/he should have more experience with that stuff |
