There's a strip of discolored, different texture skin down the middle of my breasts :T </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-acne-during-pregnancy#post-150672 Mon, 07 May 2012 13:33:43 +0000 hilsy85 150672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yuup got that too!! I've just been using my facial spot treatment on my chest as well, which seems to help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-acne-during-pregnancy#post-150663 Mon, 07 May 2012 13:29:23 +0000 MsLipGloss 150663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. Sure did. To combat it, I (1) washed my bras more frequently, and (2) made sure to wash my cleavage the same way I washed my face, i.e., with the same cleanser (and using my Clarisonic Mia) and the same topical acne treatment. It seemed to help a little, but I still get a couple every now and then. </p> <p>But I think more than anything, pregnancy is just a hormone crap shoot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-acne-during-pregnancy#post-150662 Mon, 07 May 2012 13:28:56 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 150662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I've noticed a break out there in the past few weeks. :-(</p> <p>I've been using a tea tree oil toner, and it seems to have helped some. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breast-acne-during-pregnancy#post-150657 Mon, 07 May 2012 13:26:53 +0000 mrsjyw 150657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been lucky enough to have clear skin (face) throughout the last couple of months, however, in the last few weeks, have developed pimples and white heads in my cleavage/breast area! UGH</p> <p>I think it's due to the enlargening breasts creating my boobs to be sweaty (sorry TMI) and pushed together more than usual. TIME FOR A NEW BRA! </p> <p>Did you have this? What was your cure? </p>
