Pregnancy skincare can be confusing to navigate, so this Mother’s Day we’ve put together a list of our favourite IMAGE Skincare, perfectly safe for for the Mum’s toBe. As always, if you’re unsure if the product you are using is safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, contact your local IMAGE Skincare Pro who will be happy to advise.
Cleanser: Ormedic Balancing Facial Cleanser €38/£32.50
“Hormonal breakouts are extremely common during pregnancy”, explains Michelle Ryan, IMAGE Skincare Trainer, “so the Ormedic collection can be a nice ad safe way of balancing oil during pregnancy.”
A mild, refreshing gel cleanser that gently foams away impurities, leaving skin soft, hydrated and clean. A nourishing complex with organic aloe vera and botanical extracts soothes delicate skin. The satiny texture restores softness and balance to the skin.
Serum: Iluma Intense Brightening Serum €54.50/£47
“It’s also a good idea to incorporate a skin lightener like the Iluma Intense Brightening Serum to keep any pigment at bay”, says Michelle.
This quick-absorbing serum addresses both skin discoloration and redness, offering a calming and brightening solution for irritated, sun-damaged and sensitive skin. A blend of botanical brighteners and vitamin C encourages a clear, even-toned complexion.
Eye Cream: Vital C Hydrating Eye Recovery Gel €51.50/ £44
This cooling gel formula soothes the delicate eye area and improves the signs of aging with ultra-hydrating hyaluronic acid, wrinkle-altering peptides and nourishing antioxidants. Featuring our proprietary Collagen Recovery Complex, it helps to firm skin, improve elasticity and diminish dark circles and puffiness.
Moisturiser: Prevention+ Ultimate Moisturizer (SPF 50) €49.50/£42.50
“Pregnancy masking can be very common (pigmentation ) so make sure to use SPF everyday”, suggests Michelle.
This high-level sunscreen offers effective protection against damaging UV rays. It’s an ideal choice for sports, outdoor activities and high sun exposure, yet gentle enough for post-procedure skin. It contains SPF 50 along with a blend of plant stem cells and potent antioxidants to protect skin against the effects of free radical damage caused by environmental exposure.
VITAL C Hydrating Overnight Masque €62/£53.50
Michelle’s top tip; “One product I find is great for mums that’s are sleep and time deprived is the Vital C over night mask. We call this “Beauty Sleep in a Jar “, use it 2-3 nights a week and wake up glowing”.
This overnight treatment has a triple mineral complex that energizes the skin for a revitalized look. The gel-texture delivers water to the skin and locks in vital nutrients while you sleep. Blue-green algae extract, a natural retinoid alternative, helps to smooth skin and diminish wrinkles. Hematite and malachite provide unique mineral radiance for stressed skin.
