Skincare for pregnancy and postpartum
Skincare for pregnancy:
Your beautiful baby bump skin needs extra special care during pregnancy. You may experience some skin issues such as dryness, redness, or stretch marks around your baby bump while it grows. Our range of skincare for pregnancy is full of beautiful products for you to use to help promote skin elasticity and prevent and treat dryness and itching. All these beautiful products are perfect for use during pregnancy and postpartum and are safe for you and your baby during pregnancy.
Here are some of the uses for our beautiful skincare products for new mums:
Belly massage:
Belly massage is something great for you to do to help you bond with your unborn baby, and to help promote skin elasticity during pregnancy. Choose any one of our beautiful skincare products for your bump, and put some of the product onto your hands. Spend 5 – 10 minutes rubbing your skin around your baby bump, and also around your hips, thighs, and any other areas that are expanding during your pregnancy. Enjoy a beautiful massage every day throughout your pregnancy, and your skin will thank you.
Postpartum skincare:
During the postpartum period, you may notice your skin is quite different. It is common to experience a lot of skin dryness in the early postpartum period. Some postpartum skincare, such as the hydrating moisturiser, is perfect to use across your whole body, and on your belly. You can continue to do your belly massage on any stretch marks, as this can help keep your skin hydrated and can reduce the visibility of stretch marks.
Scar Massage:
If you had a cesarean section, scar massage is something that you should be doing to reduce scar adhesions, promote blood flow, as well as reduce the visibility of your scar over time. Choose one of our lovely oils, such as the stretched to the limit oil, and spend some time massaging over the scar. You can begin doing scar massage from your 6-week check-up, or even sooner if it is healing well.
Skincare safety for pregnancy and postpartum:
All our skincare products are safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Please check the back of your pack for a detailed list of ingredients and safety precautions to take during pregnancy, postpartum, or breastfeeding.
