I am a bit of a health-nut and obsessed with all things clean eating and wellness and always have spinach in my fridge and a selection of crystals rattling around in my handbag (no, really!).
This obsession, naturally, went into overdrive when I was pregnant. I became obsessed with making sure what I was eating was good for both my health and the babies. I also started freaking out over what I was putting on my skin. It needed to be as organic and non-toxic as humanly possible. And so what else could I do but put my journalistic skills to good use? I combed the internet far and wide for some non-toxic beauty products I would still feel confident using while pregnant. I researched, read blogs and chatted on forums, and even asked other beauty writers their opinion. Eventually, my digging paid off, and I found a product so great I not only ended up using it every day for the duration of my pregnancies. Say hello to a body oil so great it will forever remain my go-to beauty staple, pregant or not.
The Orangic Pharmacy Stretch Mark Oil is an oil-blend so nourishing and rich it will moisturise and prevent stretch marks.
It also keeps your skin supple, smoothe and wrinkle-free for a long, long time. All the while being completely clean and good for you.
I used this gorgeous oil regularly when pregnant, and would always apply it in the morning and at night. After a few months I was hooked – seriously hooked.
It might seem a little pricey at €38, but it lasts forever, and your skin will thank you.
