I might try that mask after my stuff runs out. I need lots of exfoliation. Athena, I hope you're ready for a really good laugh.

My husband's been a little worried with me so close to the time, so I made a doctor's appointment and just now got back. They agreed with my husband that I am having all of the symptoms of labor and examined me. They told me that he was a good size, took a closer look, and..........the problem isn't him wanting to come out, he wants to stay in!!! ROFL When I called my husband at work and told him, all could say was how the baby did have it made in there.........free food, room, and board. Laughing

I shouldn't have posted this, but I just knew it would give you a little giggle.

Thanks, Oakview! I'm really excited about the baby, and a little nervous about how he's getting here (if you know what I mean, and I'm sure you do)! I'm sorry to here customer service wasn't good for you. So far, they've been ok for me. If you don't mind me asking, where do you get your products and what do they do? I'm trying to learn as much as I can about taking care of myself. And how old are you and what is your skin type? You already know the Good, Bad, and Really Oily of mine! Laughing

So it is almost time for your little bundle of joy to arrive. It is understandable that you are excited but nervous. You will do just fine. Please, after the baby is born do announce it in the lounge for all of us to see.

You will find you skin will change after the baby is born. Hold off buying anything else. The biggest advice I can give you is: If something is working well for you DON'T go spending all your money trying everything that sounds great on the forum. Every now and then a treat is nice. If something is working finish the product before purchasing more. The more products we have the more confused we get.

After you give birth if your needs change, I suggest getting a "try me" kit from EDS. You will have several products from one manufacturer. In most cases these kits are very affordable. In the search function type in your skin type. You will get suggestion that coincide with products talked about on the forum.

Shylass, I think my daughter is much closer to your age than I am! You definitely can't use Retin A while you are pregnant but I love that product. My daughter's derm even has her on it for anti-aging at 20. She doesn't use it everynight. We also both use sunscreen because of the Retin A. I like to use antioxidants, Vitamin C from PSF and R ALA complex from PSF. EDS carries much of the PSF line. Every third night I use super CP serum from Skinbiology. I sometimes use Rosehip seed oil as a moisturizer but am also liking the new night moisturizer from PSF. Obviously I am a PSF fan! As far as making the skin glow, I have had the best luck with Vitamin C, R ALA and to some extent the copper peptides. We also both use an eye cream - PSF super hydrating for me and Zia eye cream for her. I think it is never too early to start caring for your skin. I think Winnie is right, though, expect changes with your pregnancy and don't get too stressed. Many things return to normal, some don't but you will have a wonderful baby!

ohmigod shylass Very Happy

what did I ever do to you? Are ya tryin't to kill me with your jokes? Just don't stop, it's wonderful! Laughing

If you and your husband meet parenthood with the same wonderful sense of humor you've displayed here on EDS, you're gonna be great parents and your home will be filled with love, light and laughter!

I've never been pregnant so don't know what you're going through, but there are some actives that shouldn't be used while your pregnant or breastfeeding. Winnie's got a point not to make too many changes.

I'm not too sure about that buff pad from walmart, but I've heard a lot of great things about microfiber cleansing clothes for physical exfoliation. And yes, oily skin needs moisture too. When you use drying products, oil production can actually INCREASE.
