Pretty Flaky

I was stopped at a red light a couple of days ago when I glanced into the mirror on my visor, as I often do, to do my makeup. What I saw really shocked me. In the harsh glare of the sunlight, it was obvious that my skin was flaky, particularly around my forehead and jaw. Also, my entire neck looked flaky and slightly crepey as well, as if it had aged overnight. Not pretty.
I was tempted to slather on a thick moisturizer, which could have led to breakouts and more problems. I know that flaky skin is just as often a sign of sensitivity as it is a sign of dryness, so I treated it as gently as I could. And I resumed my skincare routine, which I've slacked off on recently. I started using my Clarisonic again, followed by my Giella Renouveau glycolic acid gel, and my Peter Thomas Roth Power-C Facial Firming Lift. Now, the flakes are gone, and my skin looks normal again! Since I've never had flaky skin before in my life, I'm chalking it up to one of those wierd pregnancy things... When you neglect your skin in pregnancy, it will do something to force you to take notice!
