Motherhood is beautiful, but it’s also challenging, especially with the rollercoaster ride that your skin goes through during and after your pregnancy! You could be swept away by excitement, worry, doctor’s appointments, and, of course, physical changes. Stretch marks, also known as striae, are common for everyone! As your belly expands, you may find yourself with a few new badges of honour-stretch marks. The good news is that there are ways to prevent their emergence and combat existing ones. The key is to protect your skin during pregnancy rather than after. Mustela has you covered with their best-selling maternity collection, with the goal of accompanying new mothers through their pregnancy.
For over 70 years, Mustela’s commitment is standing by parents by creating natural solutions to some of the most dominant skin issues plaguing mums and bubs through their revolutionary science-based skin care. In their labs, they have created effective patented products from natural molecular sources such as avocado peptides, sunflower oil distillate, and laboratory-purified galactoarabinan (natural polysaccharide) that are suitable for even the most sensitive skin. If you are someone who only applies moisturiser on occasion, pregnancy is the ideal time to get into the habit of taking extra care of your skin with the help of mum and baby-safe products! Mustela’s natural and simple 3-plus-1 step routine is dedicated to each trimester and breastfeeding as well. This range is formulated with their patented avocado oil, Maracuja oil, and olive oil to nourish, moisturise, and restore your skin, leaving it smoother and suppler.
