Is there any type of acne cream or wash that is safe to use?
My face has been breaking out so badly.

Re: acne medicine
You will see conflicting things about this depending on what you read and who you talk to... but I would ask your OB on their opinion.
I use a tiny amount of Neutrogena spot treatment with benzoil peroxide (2.5%) when needed. It's not strong at all but does the trick.

Re: acne medicine
You can use creams with benzoil peroxide just not salicylic acid. I broke out bad throughout, I just didn't care. LOL

i've been using bliss foaming face wash along with a clarisonic. the exfoliation from the clarisonic has been working wonders for me!

Re: acne medicine
You can use anything with benzoil peroxide but not salicylic acid. Surprisingly, you will find more OTC products have salicylic acid - which has not been proven safe (or unsafe, necessarily) for the baby.
