Thanks for letting me know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2356422 Sat, 14 Nov 2015 14:12:45 +0000 babycanuck 2356422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: wanted to update you - mine went away within a week of giving birth. My permanent pre-preg melasma is still there, but what went really dark during my pregnancy is now gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2325060 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 19:53:04 +0000 wrkbrk 2325060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for the responses! I will look into the products mentioned, I went to Nordstrom today and bought some Bobbi Brown foundation the makeup lady recommended for the immediate future! It is not an attractive work look. Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2325057 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 19:51:22 +0000 Reese 2325057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my underarms became SO dark! I am not sure if this is the same thing or not but it went away after LO was born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2325006 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 18:51:36 +0000 dc yoga bee 2325006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still have it on my face (looks like raccoon eyes in pictures now!) as well as my neck, and am 5 months postpartum. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324953 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 17:28:16 +0000 FannyMae 2324953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have it on the sides of my eyes/cheekbone area :/ I have quite a few small moles as well which have darkened, as well as melasma spots on my chest and tummy and new moles. ughhhh. I think I will have to crack out some kind of whitening regime post baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324902 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 15:32:10 +0000 avivoca 2324902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it around my mouth. The best thing I found was Physicians Formula concealer in green/medium. The green helped with the redness and the skin tone helped me blend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324893 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 15:12:45 +0000 Mrs Spoon 2324893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it and it was triggered by sun exposure. Unfortunately mine faded but never went completely away. I now use 50+ SPF every day because any sun exposure makes it come back worse. I also use coverFX concealer which works awesome! I'm sorry you are dealing with this. I was shocked and frustrated when it came out and then never really went away. Hopefully yours fades faster after baby arrives! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324884 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 14:59:09 +0000 hellobeeboston 2324884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: my sister got this after her first and she still has it 2 years later. I got a little on my cheek this pregnancy, I'm only 2 weeks pp and still there so we will see. I know there are some products out there to help get rid of it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324878 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 14:51:17 +0000 wrkbrk 2324878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babycanuck: you're right! I just googled and it's called both! Good luck to you. Let me know haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324872 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 14:39:11 +0000 babycanuck 2324872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it also might be called melasma? I had it before I got pregnant, and it got worse. I won't know until after I give birth if it goes away. I've found a good concealer for days that I really care to put makeup on to cover it up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324833 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 13:39:24 +0000 wrkbrk 2324833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jh524: Thanks for the rec!

It completely disappeared after pregnancy 😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324697 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 09:11:45 +0000 wrkbrk 2324697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamasig: Hey that's not bad! It totally disappeared? YAY! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324690 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 08:45:33 +0000 Mamasig 2324690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it both times but worse with my 1st pregnancy. I had it on my neck and underarms. It disappeared after birth but took a few weeks, maybe a month at most? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mask-of-pregnancy-1#post-2324687 Sun, 18 Oct 2015 08:30:09 +0000 wrkbrk 2324687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does anyone have/did anyone have this?? I think it's called chloasma officially. </p> <p>If you had it, did it disappear after the birth of the baby? Any suggestions for treatment OR covering it? I am on the lookout for a good concealer that will do the trick ... </p> <p>You can really see it here in the selfie I took to show my mom that when I am not wearing makeup it's quite noticeable!!</p> <p>:( </p> [attach=5342/15/nwf469.450x600.FullSizeRender.jpg]
