How can I limit stretch marks during pregnancy?
The key to limiting stretch marks during pregnancy is hydration and keeping your skin’s elasticity. We recommend using
Body Treatment Oils,
like our Tonic Body Treatment Oil, twice a day during your pregnancy.
Lightly massage the body oil on damp skin after bathing, focusing on the areas most prone to stretch
marks such as the stomach, thighs, breasts and hips.
For optimal results, we recommend washing your skin with cool water after application. Follow up by using
body exfoliators once a week to keep skin smooth and to help absorption of the body oil.
How to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy
It’s important to note that sometimes stretch marks can be an inevitable part of pregnancy, and we encourage mothers to embrace this beautiful side effect. To prevent them and minimise the appearance of stretch marks, we recommend regular use of a targeted treatment like
our Body Partner.
Body Partner is a lightweight, fast-absorbing formula aimed at preventing and minimising the appearance of stretch marks. Tested and recommended by pregnant women, this nourishing cream also soothes and relieves the feeling of tightness in the skin (a known side effect of pregnancy) whilst promoting firmness and elasticity.
