Pregnancy is a life-changing time for any woman, so your skin can be put through its paces during this emotional and hormonal time.
In order to make you shine even more during these 9 months of happiness, we are going to give you the best tips for taking care of your skin.
TIP #1: Hydrate yourself!
Hydration remains essential: opt for a lotion or moisturizer morning and evening and apply it all over your body.
During pregnancy, the skin on your body becomes dry and stretched due to the many pounds you gain during pregnancy. This is why it is important to moisturize it to help your body fight against the small stretch marks that are part of the joys of pregnancy and that do not disappear after it. Indeed, it is essential to apply an anti-stretch mark cream morning and evening to preserve your skin. A little tip: massage your skin throughout the application of the cream. Your skin will thank you
TIP #2: Get started with gentle products
Since your skin is already quite fragile, make sure you use healthy and gentle products for it.
Use mild soap-free cleansers, avoid lotions with alcohol and favor products dedicated to sensitive and hypoallergenic skin without perfume or preservatives. Do not hesitate to ask your pharmacist for advice.
TIP #3: Protect yourself when exposed to the sun
Exposing yourself to the sun for too long can cause brown spots to appear on your face: more commonly known as the pregnancy mask. To combat this phenomenon during the beautiful summer ahead, be sure to apply a high SPF sunscreen (minimum 50) that you reapply every two hours. Also, don't hesitate to wear beautiful wide-brimmed hats to avoid the sun's rays.
This also applies to city cars.
TIP #4: Beware of acne
During pregnancy, progesterone can make you feel like a teenager again with the appearance of the famous acne. In fact, the skin will produce excess sebum. To help regulate this flow of sebum, try zinc in capsule form or use "non-comedogenic" products. These products are designed not to clog the pores of your skin. Of course, do not take anything while waiting to hear from your doctor.
TIP #5: Food
Avoid anything that is too fatty or too sweet (allow yourself a little treat sometimes, that's important too!), this will prevent spots and oily skin.
Likewise, favor foods rich in omega-3 such as rapeseed oil, salmon, or sardines. Vitamin C (kiwi, orange, lemon) will also be your ally in keeping your skin healthy. Finally, don't hesitate to load your plate with green vegetables and vitamin A which will prevent your skin from drying out. You will also find it in certain dairy products and certain other vegetables and fruits (carrots, melon, etc.).
