The healing mummy and baby balm is ideal for use on any dry areas of skin pre or post birth. Uses include: as a rub for perineum area before birth, on C-section wounds, as a calming pulse point/lip balm, for sore/tender nipples (use before birth to strengthen skin).
To help reduce incidence/severity of stretch marks, Organic at Heart recommends the following routine:
• Gently exfoliate skin once or twice a week to remove excess dead skin cells (and encourage circulation) and ensure optimum absorption of stretch mark cream.
• Relax in a warm bath to allow skin pores to open.
• Apply stretch mark cream to warm, fresh skin using gentle massage (your baby will enjoy the massage too).
For your chance to win simply email us with the answer to the following question: Q What percentage of organic ingredients does the Healing Mummy and Baby Balm contain? See organicatheart.co.uk for the answer.
