Postpartum redness

Question

I’m about 3 months postpartum and my skin has changed a lot since having my baby. It’s become really dry, sensitive, and pretty red most of the time, especially around my nose and chin. Before pregnancy my skin was more normal and I didn’t deal with this much. I’ve had some pimples but not that many after teenage years. also, I’m breastfeeding.

I’m looking for gentle skincare recommendations that help with dryness and redness. Moisturizers, cleansers, or anything that helped you if you went through something similar postpartum.

Currently, I’m just using clinique moisturizer and the ordinary face wash.

I would appreciate any recommendations.
