3 Must-Have Mother Care Products for Every Stage of Pregnancy
You experience many changes from the time of pregnancy confirmation and after your little bundle of joy arrives in this world. One of these changes includes skin changes– the development of stretch marks, melasma, and cellulite are most visible during the third trimester. But their journey too starts from the first trimester due to hormonal changes.
Therefore, we recommend adding three essential products to your pregnancy skincare routine– anti-stretch mark oil, melasma cream and body firming cream.
As you embrace motherhood, your well-being is our utmost priority at Equals Two. Therefore, we have formulated gentle, safe and effective mother care products with natural ingredients. All our products are manufactured using Advanced Stem Cell Technology with our unique blend of Enzymatically Activated Oils. The result? Scientifically improved skincare for your pregnancy journey and beyond
Our products are free from sulfates, parabens and phthalates. They are the safest products to use during pregnancy and post-delivery. They are tested for their safety and efficacy by dermatologists.
1. Anti-Stretch Mark Oil
Stretch marks can begin forming as early as the second trimester as your skin stretches to accommodate your growing baby. That is why we suggest to start early, during the first trimester itself.
Your skin needs intense hydration, nourishment, and enhanced elasticity to prevent stretch marks or minimize their appearance. Our Anti Stretch Mark Oil has a non-greasy formulation that quickly absorbs onto the skin.
It contains Swertiamarin for stimulating collagen and improving skin texture. Nex,t we added coconut oil for deep moisturisation and fighting dryness. Flax seed oil assists in the skin repair process & helps cell regeneration, and Oat oil reduces redness and itching while enhancing ceramide levels for better moisturisation.
Hence, giving you all-around care!
We recommend you massage this oil on all the affected areas of the skin two times a day.
2. Melasma Cream
Melasma, or the “mask of pregnancy,” often appears in the first trimester and becomes more noticeable during the second and third trimesters. Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy stimulate melanocytes, the cells responsible for pigmentation, leading to dark patches on the face or other body parts. What do you need?
Well, at this time your skin needs gentle brightening and hydration to reduce pigmentation while protecting the skin barrier. Our Melasma Cream is a non-irritant formula containing the goodness of natural ingredients such as Marshmallow, Rice Bran and Liquorice Roots to reduce the dark spots on the skin.
These ingredients promote skin brightening and a visible reduction in melasma with regular use. Kakadu Plum is the richest source of the powerful antioxidant vitamin C. It offers wonderful antioxidant properties to the skin. Our Melasma Cream also reduces melanin synthesis and improves hydration. It enhances skin radiance significantly. We recommend you massage this cream on the affected areas of the body two times a day.
3. Body Firming Cream
Next comes Cellulite & reduced elasticity– becoming visible during the third trimester due to weight gain and hormonal shifts. Our body firming cream is a non-irritant formulation that contains ingredients of 100% natural origin such as Sacred Lotus, Oat Kernel and Centella Asiatica Extract.
It is a coconut-based formulation that also contains Logan Fruit and Shea Butter. It visibly reduces cellulite, helps in collagen synthesis, and deeply moisturizes the skin. So, it is an ideal body firming cream to add to your pregnancy skincare routine. We recommend you massage the cream on the affected areas of the body.
You grow and nurture a life within you during the pregnancy. So you need to take utmost care of your mind and body.
