Q: Make-up Question

hey girls,

i have a quick question. what kind of make-up did you use during your pregnancy? i have mild acne, so i used to use neutragena's line of make-up, but stopped early on in my pregnancy because the make-up contains salicylic acid, which i know it is advised to avoid while carrying.

any quick answers would help! i have my sister's graduation today & i would love to look my best for the pictures.

thanks!

i used whatever i had, but I use Mary Kay foundation because it is part of their "skin cleaning regiment" I find it the best. Now it's hard to get Mary kay stuff at the last minute unless you know someone who sells the stuff, so I really am not too sure. I'm sure you can use anything.

I guess since my mom is a glamour spazzazoid it kinda rubbed off on me.
I can't use anything except .M.A.C.
Everything else breaks my face out horribly.
I didn't wear much makeup while I was preggers though.
I loved my "pregnancy glow" and I didn't want to cover it. LOL

I use almay clear complexion. It's the only thing that I have found so far that does not break out my face. And wouldn't you know, they recently discontinued it. Seems like that happens everytime I find something that I really like. I have been lucky enough to find a few bottles of it on ebay. But once I can't find it on there anymore, I'm going to have to start trying other things.
