My rollercoaster skin journey during pregnancy in today’s @theststyle. There are before pics and all! Something you probably don’t know about me... for a long time I questioned if I should/could be a beauty director because of my bad skin days. My rationale was that you wouldn’t book in with a hairdresser with a dodgy haircut so why would you take beauty advice from a beauty director who can’t even sort out her own skin... (why are we so unkind to ourselves??) But a couple of years ago I dropped the glossy magazine nonsense and shared the real story behind my turbulent skin. In 2019 I went on a strict skincare regime that I treated like a diet. By that I mean I couldn’t be tempted to chop and change products or it would be considered falling off the bandwagon. My skin got so much better (slowly but surely!) to the point that I felt confident to go makeup free. At 14 weeks pregnant it all took a turn. Poor @drsambunting got woken up on a Sunday morning to my sudden and unexpected angry skin that developed overnight. Today’s article reveals the mistakes I made, the skincare regime that @drjustinekluk put me on at eight months pregnant - and how I have learnt to cover up the spots along the way. If you found any skincare gems during pregnancy or have any useful wisdom I’d love to hear about it. Link in stories to read the full feature.
