Skin care during pregnancy
Pregnant women are beautiful: from day to day, they appear younger and their faces shine, regardless of how good or bad they feel. Having thick hair and firm, rosy skin — if a woman is lucky! Unfortunately, things can also turn out quite differently, with hormones causing unpleasant skin changes such as pimples or pigment spots. This is why it is even more important to have an efficient and healthy skincare routine during this special time.
A pregnancy — as unique as every woman!
When women talk about their pregnancy, no experience is the same: Linda has energy for two, gains 20 kg and doesn't have a single wrinkle on her face. Sonja practically doesn't gain any weight, but has back pain, suffers from chronic nausea and still looks beautiful.
Tanja has acne and feels great otherwise. Bettina is round as a ball and constantly has itching and large pigment spots on her face. One could go on forever with examples, all of them different. It's hardly possible to make generic statements!
Natural anti-aging...
Pregnancy is a nine-month miracle, and the skin can react in different ways. During this time, blood flow is at full speed, which is why women's faces are rosy and plump.
The water in the skin tissue plumps it up from the inside, causing wrinkles to disappear from one day to the next. So, in a way, women get the most natural «anti-aging» in the world for free for nine months! Beautiful!
... Or a second puberty?
Unfortunately, pregnancy hormones also stimulate sebum flow for some women. What happens then is sometimes a bit like a revival of puberty: pimples, blackheads or even outbreaks of acne can be the result.
It is particularly important to cleanse and care for the skin well, along with the hopeful prospect of improvement. Fortunately, after giving birth or at the latest after breastfeeding, most of the unpleasant symptoms such as pain, weight and skin problems return to their original state.
Health is the top priority
Whether your skin benefits from the hormonal changes or not, for all pregnant women: a deep facial cleanse and care with highly concentrated active ingredients is essential.
Awareness of women during pregnancy usually focuses on health. Both the baby's and their own. This means that many of them become health experts and thoroughly rethink their lifestyle.
Facial care products that are completely free from alcohol, preservatives, fragrances and coloring agents are therefore very welcome: Filabé's facial care wipes do not contain any unnecessary substances and only provide the skin with what it actually needs at that moment.
