Pregnancy is such a beautiful thing! With learning that you have become pregnant can come a serious onslaught of questions and concerns. All of a sudden you realize that the choices you have been making from the food you eat to the products you use on your skin can make a difference in more than just your life. With the safety of your baby being paramount, it’s time to rethink your skincare routine.
You may already know that your skin is actually the largest organ in your body. It’s your first line of defense to protect your internal organs while also being able to absorb nutrients and chemicals into the bloodstream. That means that what you put on your skin matters. Not all products that you can buy are filled with wonderful ingredients that boost your well being unfortunately. So-
What skincare line is safe to use while pregnant?
We get asked this a lot and the answer is a quick one for us: Alastin Skincare. Everything from their skincare line, aside from their retinol (which to be clear we do not recommend any retinol products to be used during this time period), is safe to use while you are pregnant and during your breastfeeding stages.
All of their products feel like magic wonder potions but we especially like their moisturizers for daily use and post procedure care. Alastin Skincare’s moto is “Science-First Skin Care” as they focus on the science behind high quality ingredients combine to create superior products.
Many of their products utilize their patented TriHex Technology® which actually promotes the body to produce collagen and elastin resulting in the possibility of smoother, more even skin with continued use.
Here’s what Dr. Perich has to say about the TriHex Technology Alastin Skincare utilizes:
“I would totally rub this all over my body if I was pregnant! TriHex technology is going to increase collagen and elastin in the body by increasing the extracellular matrix activity in your body. What that means is that all the cells in your skin have space between them, its like a city. Normally as we age all of that stuff starts to pile up, the trash leaving all the garbage, the sewage, etc. as you age. Well, what that TriHex technology does is it takes the guys that take out the trash, fix the sewage, all that stuff and gets them back to work. So they clean up the town and everything looks much better. That’s the easiest way I can describe this!”
