skin care for every pregnant woman is most important. Normally, skin care and pregnancy goes hand in hand [Skin care tips].
Everything that you eat, apply and come into contact with any other thing affects not only you but also your baby. So, you should be very careful about whatever you do.
Topical ingredients that you use are absorbed into your blood stream and damage your developing baby.
There are various products that are considered as completely safe, but there are some ingredients which are considered as harmful for your developing baby.
Use a gentle cleanser. Usually, your doctor suggests you to use a glycerin based or non-residue facial cleanser.
If the skin is very dry, then wash your face with soap less rinse-off cleanser, which is mild and moisturizing. In order to avoid over drying, wash your face not more than twice in a day.
Moisturizing is the most essential thing that you should add to your skin care routine during pregnancy. Use the moisturizer with SPF at least 15.
During the pregnancy, the rise in hormone levels cause the growth of pigment cells that leads to facial blotchiness.
In order to avoid this skin discoloration, use sunscreen everyday. Use sunblock with SPF 30 when you go out in the midday sun or to the beach. Try to get the creams and lotions consisting of the ingredients like avobenzone or parsol on the label.
For an oily skin or for acne prone skin, use the products that contain alpha hydroxyl acid, glycolic acid, witch hazel, or topical erythromycin. Usually, most of the dermatologists don’t suggest the usage of topical retinoids or salicyclic acid. So, check the product labels for existing ingredients before buying the products.
