PREGNANCY-SAFE BODYCARE FAQS

Which bodycare ingredients should I avoid during pregnancy?

Retinoids (including retinol, which some firming body lotions contain) and high-strength exfoliating acids are commonly avoided during pregnancy, and some essential oils are best skipped, especially in the first trimester. Most everyday body lotions are fine to keep using, but always check the label and speak to your midwife or GP if you're unsure.

What should I look for in a stretch mark product during pregnancy?

A rich, nourishing oil, balm or cream you'll enjoy using every day. Shea butter, cocoa butter and hyaluronic acid help keep skin soft and supple as your bump grows. Apply morning and night, massaging into your bump, hips, thighs and chest.

Should I use a bump oil or a balm?

Both work beautifully, so it comes down to what you enjoy using. Oils absorb quickly and glide on for a soothing daily massage, especially on damp skin after a shower. Balms and creams are richer and longer-lasting, which makes them ideal for nighttime. Many people layer an oil underneath a balm for extra nourishment.

When should I start using a bump oil or cream?

Many people start in the first or second trimester, as soon as skin begins to stretch. Massage in once or twice a day to keep skin soft and supple, and read our best pregnancy skincare guide for our favourites.
