Since 2nd trimester started my skin has gone all dull and a bit patchy. Dont want to use random products na, so being careful. What did u all do for skincare during pregnancy?
My skin has been a rollercoaster! One day dry, next day breakouts. I've been using almond oil for my belly, it feels nice. Is anyone else using specific natural oils or serums? I'm trying to avoid harsh chemicals too.
Beta, during pregnancy, your skin can become quite delicate. You can try simple things from ghar pe, like pure coconut oil for moisturising or a little besan ubtan for gentle cleansing. Always check for any new product with a patch test, and if you have concerns, ask your doctor.
I had a complicated pregnancy, so I was super careful with everything, even what went on my skin. Please check with your doctor about any new products you want to use, especially if they have strong ingredients. It's always best to be safe and discuss it with your gynac.
During pregnancy, I just used a really good body butter for stretch marks and kept my skin hydrated. After my C-section, it was all about gentle, nourishing products for healing. But for pregnancy, gentle cleansing and moisturising is key.
Honestly, my skin just got really dry and sensitive during pregnancy. I mostly used very gentle, fragrance-free moisturisers that I already knew worked for me. I just focused on staying hydrated and not trying anything new, but that was just my personal choice.
