The skin you’re in
From the first to the fourth trimester, have these skincare formulas on high rotation.
1. GRO-TO SUD BUD GENTLE BUBBLE BATH, $25.
The brainchild of mother and beauty entrepreneur Zoë Foster Blake, Gro-To formulas are not only gentle and nourishing, they’re also dermatologically tested and free from irritants. Another bonus? The kitsch packaging that everyone can enjoy.
2. CLARINS TONIC BODY TREATMENT OIL, $73.
If a friend hasn’t recommended this oil to you already, take our word for it: the texture, smell and the fact it’s packed with pure plant extracts make it a joy to use during pregnancy and beyond.
3. WELEDA NIPPLE CARE CREAM, $34.
Loaded with soothing aloe vera and nourishing natural plant oils, keep a tube of this cream in the nursery, car and baby bag for on-the-go relief.
4. LA ROCHE-POSAY ANTHELIOS DERMOPEDIATRICS CHILDREN’S INVISIBLE SPRAY SUNSCREEN SPF50+, $36.
Catering to even the most sensitive skin types, La Roche-Posay’s kid-centric sunscreen is spiked with the highest sun-protection factor and a nifty spray applicator for wrangling energetic toddlers.
5. THIS WORKS DEEP SLEEP PILLOW SPRAY, $40.
While we’re not suggesting this snooze spray can perform miracles, sleep-deprived parents may benefit from aromatics like lavender, vetiver and chamomile to ease fatigue.
6. OLE HENRIKSEN WRINKLE BLUR BAKUCHIOL EYE GEL CRÈME, $75.
When your retinol formulas are on hiatus during pregnancy, swap in a more gentle alternative in the form of nature’s vitamin A, bakuchiol.
