Maternity Skin Care with La Flora Organics

We recommend that expectant mothers check with their physician before changing a skincare routine with our products, or any other line of products. We use quality natural and Certified Organic ingredients. No harmful synthetic additives, colorants, or chemical derivatives are used. Applying the herbs present in many of our soaps externally is not a problem. As you know, your skin will absorb much less herb from the soap than through your food. In aromatherapy, the concentration of essential oils that are absorbed through inhalation and massage is much lower than if you were actually ingesting the oil. Soap does not remain on your skin very long and the percentage of essential oils used in our soap bars is very low. Even if you have never had sensitive skin in the past, your skin might turn sensitive during pregnancy to some oils or botanicals. The stretching belly, hips, thighs, and bottom where the skin may become dry and flaky are potential problem areas. Your body is transforming and your skin is thinning and stretching as you and your baby grow.

Your body needs a lot of moisturization and hydration. Better to avoid products that contain synthetic additives, colorants, fragrances, or harmful preservatives. Before trying a new product, you can always do a skin patch test to test for sensitivity and allergies.

Your skin is trying to thin and expand to accommodate the growing baby. Hips, thighs, and bottom are areas where the skin may become dry and flaky. Take a little oil, and massage it gently on your body focusing on areas like breasts, belly, thighs, and hips. Do not apply much pressure on the belly areas. You may do it yourself or ask your partner to apply for you making it a wonderful time to bond, relax and above all connect with your transforming body. Leave it for self-absorption or wash it off under a warm shower. Pat dry. Use regularly for better results.

Will it reduce the appearance of stretch marks?

Generous, regular application of the oil helps your skin to improve its elasticity, be well moisturized, and above all gets it ready for easier stretching that growing baby and body demands. It can help to prevent and reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
