Skin after pregnancy

I'm had a baby 6mths ago. Ever since I've had her my skin is terrible. It's like I'm a pubescent teenage again. Urrghhh. It's not like I have acne but there's definitely an issue going on. Any ideas, suggestions or even some misplaced sympathy would be great and even welcomed.

I had 2 huge pimples on either side of my head permanently for a year they were so big they looked like horns. I had massive breakouts around my mouth it looked like i had huge windburn lol fun isn't it all those hormones. Your skin will settle down eventually don't be too harsh on it. If you are not breastfeeding benzac is amazing! They have a cleanser moisturiser and a cream however you can just get the cream it's a spot treatment and helps to get rid of the spots.

Ugh my skin was shocking after I had my son. Once I went back on the pill it settled down.
