Having a healthy baby means keeping the mother healthy all throughout her pregnancy. While a pregnant woman closely watches her daily diet, she must also be mindful of the beauty products that she uses on her skin to address her skin problems. An expectant mother’s exposure to toxins and chemicals may cause health problems, not only to herself, but also to her unborn baby.
Some studies show that the use of beauty products that are manufactured with harmful chemicals may affect the child in the mother’s womb. These studies show that when a mother uses synthetic beauty products for her skin, her baby’s body weight, organs, systems and functions that are still on their way to development are put into high risk. That is the main reason why natural skin treatment is highly recommended for expectant mothers.
Hello Ladies,
I would just like to remind all the ladies out there, that yes, we all want to avoid chemicals in our food, milk and our household while being pregnant. It is very important. I also want to remind everyone that there are alot of chemicals in skincare today, and pregnant women should only use chemical free or Organic face creams.
Your skin is an organ – that you are sharing with your unborn child. Any chemicals applied to your skin will feed the growth of your child. And please do your research on the internet regarding chemicals in skin care products.
My personal recommendation, is the Made from Earth product line. They are completely chemical free and organic, and their products have a shelf life of 6 months, because they are not presevred with chemicals, but they do use quality ingredients. I used their 3 Berry Face Serum while I was pregnant, and its a great face cream I highly recommend.
