Pregnancy, postpartum and parenting is exhausting, we're right there in the trenches with you. Sleep deprived? Struggling through pregnancy? Rocking your newborn to sleep every other hour?
The "pregnancy or new mum glow" people talk about, often doesn't quite live up to the reality. So we've compiled our top tips to help you feel a little more radiant this festive season, and all year round.
1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate
Hydration plays an important role in your skin health and total wellbeing, especially when pregnant and also as the weather warms up so aim for 2 litres of water daily. Struggling to stomach water? Try a refreshing Hydramama.
2. At Home Skincare
It can feel too easy to jump into bed without doing your nightly skincare when you're exhausted after a day of pregnancy or parenting. We get it! That's why our founder created Habitual Beauty, a range of effective, yet super simple skincare (ideal for tired mamas).
3. Collagen Supplementation
The ultimate life hack for time poor mamas who want to achieve plump, juicy skin while on-the-go. Designed to be poured straight into a morning coffee to smoothie, our Collagen Peptides are clinically proven to support skin firmness, elasticity and increase moisture levels. Think skincare you can drink AND best of all, totally delicious.
4. Sun Protection
UV and sun damage are one of the biggest causes of premature ageing and skin damage, so protect your skin with a high quality SPF 50+ all year round. Always dress the kids and yourself protective clothing, re-apply sunscreen frequently and avoid prolonged sun exposure, especially in the middle of the day.
5. Prioritise Nutrition
We get it, the diet of a pregnant woman can sometimes be quite beige and bland. When you're feeling well, try to incorporate in antioxidants, healthy fats, protein and vitamin D (to name a few) to nourish your skin from the inside out.
