[PSA] I had been suffering for 5 months from what I thought was a hormonal cystic breakout from my pregnancy. IT WAS MY PILLOW.

This is just a PSA reminder to check external causes for breakouts that don't seem to go away. I was pregnant and figured I was just not one of the lucky ones to have her skin fixed (even though my face cleared up beautifully) and had a massive cystic breakout along my neck and jawline for months. Turns out I WAS one of those lucky women but my memory foam pillow gel was leaking and causing a horrible breakout. I change my pillow cases regularly but didnt wash the case over the foam itself for a long time because lazy and pregnant. When the breakout didn't go away after the baby I was about ready to call my derm when I took off the second case and saw the gel leak right where my neck goes. I ordered a new pillow and it cleared up in 3 days. I hope someone can learn from my mistakes 😭
