Yes, me too.
What works, I'm afraid, is having the baby. It's hormonal, hereditary, and usually related to ethnicity. So creams aren't really going to help. I do have spots now that I didn't have before, but the mask is gone.

My sister had this with all 3 of her pregnancies. It eventually went away, but it was a few years. Sorry that's not too helpful.

What about trying a self-tanning lotion?

The pregnancy mask is due to hormonal changes. There is a product that takes this away completely (as well as any sun damage you may have), but you need to be done breast feeding before you can start. It is called Reverse and it is a four step regimen created by Rodan and Fields Dermatologists. It also comes with a 60 day empty bottle guarantee so if you are not satisfied with your results you can get a 100% refund. I am currently 6 months pregnant and starting to see dark spots form on my face as well so I am thrilled there is a product out there I can use to correct it.

Here is the site: https//:bethrayon.myrandf.com. If you sign up as a Preferred Customer you get free shipping and a 10% discount. I also live just a few minutes from you if you would like to try the products first. My email is ____@____.com

I had it with both my pregnancies. It's due to hormones. Always wear sunscreen and a hat when outdoors. I'm not sure what kind of birth control you are on, but opt in for a low estrogen one. That will help.
