Avoiding stretch marks
Don't be caught off guard by these unsightly bluish-purple lines that can appear towards the end of your pregnancy. Rare are the lucky few who manage to escape them. Once again the culprit of these unpleasant lines is hormonal change. During your pregnancy the secretion of cortisol causes the collagen, which maintains the elasticity of your skin, to harden. A few weeks before your baby arrives your stomach, breasts, hips and thighs grow, leading to an over-stretching of the skin. Dealing with the stretch marks s once you have them is much more complicated than preventing their appearance. So a word of advice: massaging the anti stretch marks cream onto your skin twice a day from the first months of your pregnancy can keep the skin over your new found curves smooth and supple.
Nourish dryer skin.
The majority of women experience an increased dryness of their skin during pregnancy. Because of the frequent water retention the hydrolipid system in the dermis no longer produces the sebum necessary hydrate the skin. So it's vital that you give your skin enough 'to drink' by using a deep-moisturising cream. Two areas of the body are particularly susceptible to dryness: your face - where our Mapuchelawen cream will work wonders for you; and your legs, for which we recommend our nutritive cream made with rosehip oil extract.
Your breasts - firmer but more fragile than ever.
Throughout your pregnancy your breasts will prepare themselves for breastfeeding. In the course of the 9 months they can increase in weight from between 200gr to more than 1kg. But while your increased breast size may delight you and those around you, it can also have its down side. So it is essential that you look after your breasts during this period of rapid growth. There are three cardinal rules to respect: Chose a bra that fits well and gives good support, do daily exercises to maintain muscle support around the chest, and apply our anti stretch marks cream or nutritive cream morning and evening.
Your belly, centre of the universe.
The warm and soft nest that holds your baby is the object of everyone's admiration and deserves every possible pampering. From the first months of your pregnancy, get into the habit of gently massaging your belly with a moisturising cream. This act of beauty care that is essential to maintaining suppleness of the skin and reducing the risk of stretch marks s, also creates an important bond of physical contact between you and your unborn baby. By promoting the skin's elasticity you can avoid the unpleasant pulling sensation that is often felt as the skin stretches, leaving behind the unsightly lines. We recommend that you use our anti stretch marks cream once or twice a day for the first two terms of your pregnancy, and three times a day during the third term.
Wipe out skin discoloration
Towards the sixth month of pregnancy many women develop slight discoloration of the skin. Darkened stains appear, especially on the forehead and around the mouth. Once again hormones are to blame as they make the skin particularly sensitive to sun damage so that the skin tans in the sun, but in uneven patches. During the day use a strong sun cream with a high factor to protect your skin, and then combat any unavoidable damage by applying our Age spot fade cream in the evening.
