A Pregnant Woman’s Guide to Organic Products

To be pregnant is such a thrill! You must welcome the idea with eager anticipation. A life growing inside of you is indeed a blessing, a great miracle.

You must know, however, that pregnancy can be very challenging. There are many dos and don’ts that you have to be aware of. You need to be very particular not just with the food you eat, but with the skin care products that you use. You see, quite a lot of the moisturizers, lotions, creams, shampoos, and other skin care products that you use contain carcinogens and other toxic ingredients that may affect your unborn baby. Even the FDA and other health organizations agree with this.

Don’t worry, though, because when there’s a problem, there’s always a solution. In this case, there are skin care products made of organic or all natural ingredients. Manufacturers of organic skin care products know the concerns of every pregnant woman --- stretch marks, sagging skin, and so on. Thus, they have created a line of beauty products that help to reduce stretch marks, tone the skin and make it glow. There are even organic products that are made especially for babies.

Yes, organic stretch mark creams and lotions are available and they are made of 100% botanical ingredients. For sagging skin, there are body toning oils composed of natural ingredients like avocado, pomegranate, and jojoba oils, to name a few. These ingredients are believed to aid in the production of collagen, enabling the skin to retain its elasticity.

There are also organic shampoos, soaps, and body washes for you for your baby. Since they are organic, you can be sure that they are free of harsh chemicals that dry or irritate your baby’s ultra sensitive skin.

Organic products are available in your local food store. You can also search for organic distributors in your area. It’s important to always check the labels, though; make sure it’s “certified organic”, meaning it’s 100% all natural. There are companies, you see, that manufacture products with chemical ingredients but are still rated as organic because the amount of these ingredients are only minimal. Still, it’s always best to look for something that is 100% chemical-free.
