Cetaphil cleanser and moisturiser. Very gentle - dermatologists recommend

I was the same, never suffered with spots even as a teenager but by 18 weeks my forehead and chin was covered!
I went to see the doctor who referred me to a dermatologist & he prescribed me Acnecide Benozyl Peroxide 5% cream, which he said is one of the only ones safe to use in pregnancy.
It's worked bloody wonders!
It says give it 8-12 weeks for it to work properly but I've used it every morning & evening for 23 days and it's almost completely gone.
Give it a whirl ☺️
