Pregnancy spots
I usually have normal type, clear skin but since being pregnant I have developed a lot of spots in between my eyebrows and in a row along the top of my cheekbones. I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant and eating a good healthy diet / staying hydrated but the spots seem to be getting worse not better. Any advice?

Re: Pregnancy spots
Skin can change a lot during pregnancy.
In the first instance simplify your skin care, use a non-pore blocking (non-comedogenic) cleanser twice daily and an oil-free moisturiser. Avoid heavy pore blocking make up and powder. If this doesn't help, see your GP for further help.
