During pregnancy, your body experiences a lot of hormonal ups and downs that unfortunately lead to a number of not-so-pretty pregnancy symptoms such as food cravings, nausea, fatigue and mood swings. And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, these same hormones change the overall appearance of your skin – this doesn’t help when you're already self-conscience of your body.

Of course, maintaining a healthy diet, drinking plenty of water and getting enough rest are not only good for you but also for the growth of your baby. Many women are very aware of the importance of what they put or don't put in their bodies during pregnancy, such as caffeine, alcohol, or tobacco, but it's just as important to be conscience of what you're putting on your body.

Many of the creams and lotions are absorbed into the body's bloodstream and can greatly affect the health of your unborn child and his development. You want to stay away from products that contain retinoid (found in anti-aging moisturizers), salicylic acid (found in acne products) and soy which can make dark patches (melasma or chloasma) more noticeable. Because our products are made from all natural ingredients, they are completely safe for the use of pregnant women or even children with skin complications.

Proper pregnancy skin care is so important. Now is not the time to hide in your room but a time to find out what you can do to keep your skin

Whether it's dry or oily, all pregnant women should use moisturizer to protect their skin and to keep it soft and supple. The best products for this are those that actually replenish your skin's capacity to hold in water, nourishes your dermis, and signal the cells in the basal layer of your skin to jump-start the regenerative process that rebuilds collagen, elastin and repairs and rejuvenates all the structural elements of healthy skin.
