Usually twice, sometimes 3 if I want to completely re-do my makeup or if I shower in the middle of the day.

 
Congrats on your pregnancy! I used to be an as needed girl, typically a light rinse in the morning and a nice wash in the evening to remove my makeup. I'm in between stages trying to figure out what works for me as well because I felt I needed to take better care of my skin, so I wish you the best of luck. I think it's just something you've got to go through the trial and error process with. I'm sorry I'm not much of a help.

 
Twice a day is sufficient even if you have dry skin, since it's important to keep it clean & free of dirt & dust that settles on your skin. However the most important factor to consider is what are you washing your face with? If you have dry skin then using a creme cleanser is what you need for the AM, using cool water, & at night using a foaming cleanser appropiate for normal-dry skins will do. Also examine the toner you're using, that too could be drying you out, make sure it's for normal-dry or normal-combination skins, whatever your preferrence. Follow with a oil free moisturizer & you should be ok.
 
I was my face 3x a day.

*in the AM when I wake up

*when I get home from work or school(which ever it be)

*before bed

...and my face still looks like crap:wacko:

 
in the morning i just wash the eye area to get away anything that piled up there throughout the night..

at night i use cleanser and wash my entire face..

 
I only wash my face 2x a day, unless I did something strenuous like running, swimming, or biking; in that case, I wash right after in the shower because I don't like feeling all sweaty!

 
I wash my face once in the morning. In the evening I use unscented alcohol free baby wipes to wash off my make up at night.

 
I'm on the Regimen at acne.org so I wash my face, wait 15 minute, apply Benzoyl Peroxide, wait 15 minutes and apply my moisturizer. It works sooo good, at least for me, I haven't had zits for a while now. It's kinda tedious, seeing as it takes 30 minutes to wash my face, and then I still have to put make up on. But I'm not sure if Benzoyl Peroxide is safe if you are pregnant.

 
I only wash my face when I shower . . . otherwise I will get a pimple. For some reason, the more i take care of my face, the more it breaks out. :wassatt:

 
See above!

Would like to know, I do three times a day, morning, when I get home (face feels sooo oily by the time I get home lol) and before I go to bed.

I may skimp out on some by just rinsing if I feel dry from the cold winter.

 
In the evening before I go to bed I cleanse my face with cleansing milk and toner. But I take a shower in the morning so I don't really see a need to cleanse more than that. Of course I mousturize after the shower.

 
congratulations on your pregnancy. I wash twice a day with St.Ives Clear pore cleanser. Doctors usuually recommend that you wash only twice a day so as not to strip more oils from th eface thus leading to increased production of oil an thus more pimples. I would day look for a moisturizing cleanser so that you don't have to put on as much moisturizer when you wash.

 
Hey,

Congrats on your pregnancy.:clap :clap What you're experiencing with your skin is not uncommon. Have you tried Cetaphil? It's a gentler cleanser. You can find it in your local drug store.

 
I experienced the same thing during the first trimester of my pregnancy...I even got a bit darker! I guess it's because of the hormone fluctuations. It does require a lot of patience.

I wash my face every morning and evening with a cleanser designed specifically for oily skin. I then use a a toner with clindamycin phosphate to manage pimples followed by an oil-free moisturizer with spf15.
