Top 5 Beauty Must-Haves for New Moms

1. Essential oils for stretch marks

The occurrence of stretch marks is a common sight during pregnancy. With the right stretch marks oil, you can minimise the appearance of stretch marks post-birth. These oils should not be applied directly but be used along with a carrier oil such as coconut or olive oil. Some of the best essential oils for stretch marks include argan oil, lavender oil, pomegranate oil, bitter orange oil and Neroli oil. To prevent any skin irritation and burning issues, mix around 15 to 20 drops of essential with an ounce of carrier oil. Apply over a small skin patch and work your way up depending on your skin tolerance level.

2. Keep your lips nourished with a Natural lip balm

Applying a lip balm keeps your lips nourished and is safe enough for all those kisses to your newborn baby. Get your hands on an SLS & parabens-free lip balm. In case you have dry, weary or cracked lips, having a lip balm at hand is a must.

3. Dry shampoo for clean voluminous hair

You may experience hairball problems post-delivery as a result of hormonal changes in the body. To ensure better hair care, the use of a shampoo which is good for your scalp is essential. Bring home a dry shampoo to instantly refresh the hair, mask odour and add volume to your hair. Simply spray it on your hair, allow it to dry & work its magic on the scalp and then you can remove it by combing out the residual shampoo flakes.

4. Eye repair cream for those tired puffy eyes

With your little one keeping you awake late at night; you may suffer from tired parent eyes. To help you improve this condition, eye repair creams come to the rescue. Most eye creams have hyaluronic acid as well as ceramics to help keep the skin smooth and prevent the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Another ingredient present in such creams is niacin amide which helps reduce the redness and soreness of the eyes. Try out Mylo's under- eye cream to reduce puffiness, and dark circles, which has Glycerin as well to moisturize the under-eye area.

5. Moisturizing lotion for that long-lasting glow

And last but not least a moisturizing lotion to provide you with everlasting and continuous hydration benefits. A moisturizer works to refine the skin’s texture while improving the fine lines and pores to make the skin appear smoother, softer and re-energized. Regular use of Aloe- Vera gel is also a good option to unclog pores, remove impurities and nourish the skin.
