These are the Best Facials to get During Pregnancy
Maybe you’re one of those mama’s to be that has the elusive pregnancy glow.
Or maybe you’re suffering from facial bloating, oily skin, dry skin or acne. Either way, who doesn’t love a facial, especially when you’re in need of a little extra pampering.
Below are the best pregnancy-safe facials and how they can help your skin.
Exfoliating Facial:
One of the more common facials, this facial is especially helpful for moms-to-be that are suffering from dry, dull, or acne-prone skin. An exfoliating facial is designed to cleanse the face of dead skin cells, thereby speeding up cell turnover. The typical result is glowing skin.
Oxygen Facial:
Made popular among celebrities, oxygen facials use pressurized steam to infuse helpful ingredients into your skin. The ingredients can vary depending on the practice but often times include skin-plumping hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, vitamins and/or botanical extracts. Again, this treatment is great for anyone suffering from dry, dull, or acne prone skin.
Deep Cleansing:
Calling all mamas suffering from hormonal acne. This facial typically incorporates a multi-step process that includes some form of exfoliation, extraction or steam finished with a massage and mask/moisturizer.
As a reminder always let your facialist know ahead of time that you are pregnant. They know their products best and may suggest you avoid certain lotions or try others. If you’re in a bigger city there are plenty of spas that focus on prenatal care, try booking a facial at one of these spas for even greater targeted treatment.
