During pregnancy, a mother-to-be's skin is exposed to various factors, making it more sensitive. This is due to hormonal changes that occur at the very beginning of pregnancy. One in three women experiences excessive skin sensitivity. Therefore, during pregnancy and postpartum, women should ensure proper skin care. To achieve this, it's worth choosing high-quality, certified natural cosmetics. Our selection includes intensely moisturizing body lotions, creams and oils for stretch marks, and specialized intimate hygiene products .
Skin care during pregnancy and postpartum
Why is skin care so important? Pregnancy is a significant challenge for the mother's body. All of her strength and energy are directed toward shaping a new life. Already in the first weeks of pregnancy, hormonal changes cause the skin to become drier and more sensitive to external factors. Melanin secretion and breakdown are disrupted, and discoloration may appear on the skin. Acne is also a common problem for expectant mothers. Without proper body care, these problems can worsen in the following months.
It's important to choose safe cosmetics during pregnancy. Some ingredients in everyday body products can have an adverse effect on fetal development. During this critical time, it's worth choosing cosmetics based on organic ingredients with strong nourishing and moisturizing properties, whose quality is confirmed by certificates . Our selection includes organic balms and body oils made with natural ingredients . Talm's Mega Balm organic pregnancy balm is a perfect example.
Cosmetics for expectant mothers against stretch marks
How does pregnancy affect the skin? Over the course of several months, a mother-to-be's belly expands rapidly. The skin is both significantly weakened and highly stretched, often leading to the development of stretch marks. This problem affects up to 90% of pregnant women.
Stretch marks are caused by the breakage of collagen fibers due to their weakening. Using appropriate cosmetics nourishes the skin and improves its elasticity. Anti-stretch mark cosmetics should contain deeply moisturizing plant oils that penetrate the deeper layers of the skin, as well as vitamin E. This makes the skin firmer and more elastic, and regenerates faster.
Our store offers a special oil for pregnant women and a Nessa brand stretch mark reducing ointment . Scar Savior contains plant oils, vitamin E, and active compounds derived from licorice and turmeric roots . It can be used preventively or to effectively reduce existing stretch marks and scars, such as those resulting from a cesarean section.
Safe cosmetics for daily breast care for breastfeeding mothers
Just like the pregnancy belly, the expectant mother's breasts also begin to grow to produce the milk necessary for feeding the baby after birth. This may be accompanied by itching and the formation of stretch marks. Therefore, just like the belly, it's important to take care of the breasts, using nourishing and moisturizing oils and creams.
Breasts of breastfeeding mothers require special care. While this is a natural activity that can be enjoyable for many women, it can also be associated with problems such as breast pain and cracked nipples. To alleviate these negative effects, it's worth using special cosmetics designed for breastfeeding women . In our store, you'll find, among other things, a concentrated serum for pregnant women that intensely moisturizes, cools, and soothes pain and itching , as well as a natural ointment for cracked nipples for breastfeeding women . These natural cosmetics are safe for both mother and baby, as confirmed by appropriate certificates .
Intimate hygiene cosmetics for pregnancy and postpartum care
Maintaining proper intimate hygiene during pregnancy and the postpartum period is crucial. It not only allows you to feel comfortable despite the numerous changes occurring in your body, but also protects against infections. Pregnant and postpartum women are much more susceptible to bacterial and fungal infections.
To ensure your health and well-being, consider the specialized intimate hygiene products available in our store. Our intimate hygiene oils are rich in natural ingredients that nourish and moisturize, protecting dry skin . They are designed for women not only during pregnancy and the postpartum period, but also during menopause and hormonal therapy.
