Gentleness and high quality come first in care of pregnant women and newborn babies. So, let´s have a look at what cosmetics are suitable for pregnant women and babies and what to look out when selecting cosmetic products.
Pregnancy and childbirth are among the most amazing, but at the same time, the most challenging periods in women´s life. It is therefore important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including selection of suitable cosmetics. Suitable skincare during pregnancy and care of sensitive skin of newborns can prevent allergic reactions and skin problems.
How to choose cosmetics for pregnant women and expectant mothers?
Physical needs of women, as well as their sensitivity to various ingredients contained in cosmetic products, change during pregnancy. Particularly at this time it is of paramount importance to use cosmetics that neither irritate the skin, nor cause allergic reactions. What shall you focus on?
1. Safe composition
Focus on products with natural and allergen-free ingredients.
2. Safe perfume
Some perfumes and fragrances contained in cosmetic products can cause allergic reactions and increased sensitivity during pregnancy. Consider using products with minimal or no perfume.
3. Protection against the Sun
Sun exposure can be more dangerous during pregnancy than ever because the skin is more sensitive to pigmentation. Use broad-spectrum sunscreens with a high SPF and avoid direct sunlight.
4. Safe hair cosmetics
Be careful when dyeing your hair or using chemical hair products. Focus on hair cosmetics suitable for sensitive scalp and with allergen-free perfume during pregnancy.
5. Preventive measures
Some expectant mothers worry about formation of stretch marks (i. e. striae gravidarum) during pregnancy. Are you one of them? Choose products with vitamin E, collagen, elastin or other active substances. Such products will help you maintain your skin supple, soft and firm. However, most stretch marks are genetic and they cannot be entirely prevented.
“It is important to listen to your body and respond to its needs during pregnancy.”
Every pregnant woman is unique and what works for one woman may not work for another. So, bear in mind that the best cosmetics for you are those that respect your needs and your sensitivity at this important stage of your life.
In case of any doubts about safety of your selected or used cosmetics, it is always appropriate to consult a physician.
How about skin care during pregnancy?
Hormonal changes affecting condition of your skin may occur during pregnancy. Choose gentle cleansing and hydrating products that do not contain any irritant substances. Pay attention to acne, which can be more frequent during pregnancy. If you need advice, consult a dermatologist.
