Techniques for skincare during pregnancy

During the pregnancy, women’s level hormones can be fluctuating, which affects the body function and skin condition. The usually fresh and bright appearance of skin may be altered so that mothers should carefully take care of the skin. Babi Mild has tips for skincare in order to keep the mothers’ skin always beautiful, fresh, and healthy even though they are during the pregnancy.

Facial cleaning begins with using fresh water or cleanser to clean the face. In case of dry skin, moisturizing facial cleanser that contains no soap should be used. Cleaning face twice a day is adequate.

Protecting the skin from sunlight; an important step of skincare is to regularly nourish the skin throughout the pregnancy period by applying sunscreen cream with at least SPF 15. In case of exposure to the strong sun or on the beach, the sunscreen cream with at least SPF 30 should be used because the increased level of hormone during pregnancy will result in an increase of skin color pigment so that there may be blemish on facial skin. So, the sunscreen cream should be use daily in order to prevent considerable change of skin color. Most importantly, the cream appropriate for your skin condition should be used.

Oiliness and acne on facial skin; if your face is oily and have acne more than usual, you may probably feel unconfident. So, a good practice is to choose facial wash products suitable for oily facial skin, and that is another good helping hand. Do not even think about using acne treatment medication because it usually jeopardizes the baby.

Makeup techniques during pregnancy; making up during pregnancy is quite simple and consume less time than usual because the skin during pregnancy is in healthy complexion so that mothers do not wish to have a strong makeup when they go to work. The recommended makeup techniques are:

2. Draw the eyebrows, brush the cheek with light tone color to make it look natural, then apply the gloss or moisturizing lipstick that contains moisturizer and sunscreen substances.
