You already know: you're going to have a baby. Before you buy your pregnancy clothes, do an overview of your cosmetics. Replace some of the creams with those that will not harm you or your baby. The pregnant woman becomes more beautiful. Thanks to hormones, the condition of the skin, hair and nails improves. It does not mean, however, that you can skip the daily care. On the contrary - you should take care of yourself more carefully than before, so that you do not have any souvenirs of pregnancy in the form of stretch marks or discoloration after having a baby.

What to care for the skin for nine months? This question appears frequently in internet forums. Women inpregnantwant to be well-groomed, but are afraid to harm their baby. Such concerns are partially correct. It is true that an ordinarycreamwill not do anything wrong, but some ingredients used incosmeticsare not recommended for women who are expecting a baby. That is why special pregnancy lines were invented, recommended not only during these nine months, but also after childbirth. They include breast creams, anti-stretch mark milks, olives that make the skin elastic, cooling gels for the legs, lotions that strongly moisturize the skin, relaxing bath lotions, and even creams with an anti-discoloration filter.

What is the difference between pregnancy cosmetics and regular cosmetics?

First of all, they do not contain ingredients that can harm a pregnant woman or a baby. Second, their formulas are designed to minimize the risk of irritation and allergies to which pregnant women are more prone. Finally, thirdly, they do not smell or have a very delicate smell - so as not to irritate the sensitive nose of the pregnant woman. If you use these cosmetics during pregnancy, you will not harm yourself or your baby.

It is worth investing in good pregnancy cosmetics

However, it makes no sense to buy the entire line at once, because you will not need all the preparations. It is also a significant burden on the wallet - maternity cosmetics are usually much more expensive than those you can buy at a drugstore, often sold only in pharmacies. Which ones are worth investing in? You will definitely need a strong balm against stretch marks. If you were very thin before pregnancy or you have a genetic predisposition to stretch marks, you should also buy a body elasticizing oil.

Cosmetics moisturizing, improving elasticity, preventingdiscoloration

During pregnancy, it is also worth using breast creams that strengthen the skin. Regularly patted in, they prevent the skin from sagging and improve its elasticity. Thanks to this, the breasts quickly regain their shape after giving birth. Usually, a strong moisturizing body gel is also useful. Almost 3/4 of future mothers have problems with too dry skin, because the increased level of estrogens slows down the work of the sebaceous glands. In summer, it is worth considering a face cream that prevents discoloration. And if your calves and feet swell (which often happens in the last trimester of pregnancy), a cooling gel will provide relief.
