Foreue – Natural Skin Care (Handmade & Vegan)

Pregnancy can be an exciting time for most new mothers as they plan for the arrival of a new baby.  While these changes are both enjoyable and stressful, it’s important to keep your skin healthy looking during these nine months.  Now, lets take a much closer look at healthy skin care choices for expectant mothers.

Its no secret that your hormones may will put your life out of balance, so you most likely will experience various changes throughout this period. Some women get oilier skin during their pregnancy, so you might want to switch up your skin care routine to natural and healthy skin care products that cater to your new changes, should you experience any of them.  Try switching to pure  olive oil as a daily face wash.  Olive oil works well as  a natural face wash by attracting other oils and removing them, plus it moisturizes your skin.

Sometmes pregnant women get unsightly stretch marks across their stomachs or torso. Luckily cocoa butter can help make these stretch marks virtually vanish.  And last, but certainly not least, many women have to deal with melasma-  a condition that causes  dark splotches to appear on their skin due to the high levels of melanin produced by hormones. Melasma can be a burden on one’s self image, certainly a cosmetic inconvenience.  Wearing a natural sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher can help you avoid the effects of melasma, and using natural skin care products enriched with Vitamin C, including natural moisturizers and our good friend oilve oil are other good options.

As always, remember to eat smart, drink plenty of pure water, and get plenty of sleep. The healthier you are, the healthier your baby will be.
