body balm for pregnancy
- Nourishes stretched + dry skin
- Suitable for sensitive skin
Mater Body Balm for pregnancy helps soften and replenish your skin through the stress and stretching of pregnancy. This soothing balm is an ideal moisturising treatment specially formulated to promote softness and elasticity and help reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
As your body changes and baby grows throughout your pregnancy your skin stretches to accommodate these changes. During this time your skin can often become tight and dry resulting in a loss of elasticity which impacts its ability to cope with stretching.
