Hi! 

I’ve had days where the mere thought of washing my face before falling into bed seems impossible. I’m just too tired and frankly unwilling to pry myself from the soft, cool bed. That’s why I think I like the concept behind Rosy Glow Baby Your Face wipes so much. They offer me the option to remove my makeup without removing myself from the bed and still be gentle to my sensitive skin. I’m also betting they’d be a great addition to any diaper bag for those days when you need to wipe the day away a little bedtime. 

Happy shopping!

Hi!
Taking good care of your skin while pregnant and once baby arrives is essential. You may even find that it has changed significantly to become drier or oilier than it was before you were expecting. I’m all about a good face wash and moisturizer but sometimes you also need a little extra help. Check out the combo pack of Baby Bump’s 2 in 1 Face Mask & Scrub. It’s got tiny microbeads meant to gently exfoliate away the dead skin cells and reveal that hidden inner glow.
Happy pampering!

Hi!

The answer to that question is an emphatic “yes it is!”  The skin on your belly is stretching to accommodate that growing baby. And that stretching can lead to all sorts of unpleasant things including itchiness and stretch marks. To combat these and bring you and your man a little closer I’m loving Baby Bump Stretch Mark and Massage Oil. I’m sure it won’t be the first time you hear about it here at DueMaternity.com.

I’m especially keen on it’s amazing texture – so many oils can be greasy and leave you feeling like you’ve been oiled up for frying but Baby Bump’s is really quite nice. It’s also 100% natural made from Jojoba, Olive, Grapeseed and Sweet Almond oils and packaged in such a pretty way you’ll be happy to keep it on the nightstand. I say make a date with hubby and Baby Bump tonight!

Happy massaging!

Hi!

I think I told you that two of my friends are pregnant right now. That means it’s shower season for me and that also means gifts. My gifts tend to be something personalized and most recently these have taken the form of a hand-knit baby hat and wash cloths. Super soft yarn means baby gets pampered from day one. But skincare is also key for the little one so I’m adding the fab Gift Set from Belli to the box. 

I like that it’s 100% phthalate free meaning it’s so much better for baby – and Mom, too. I love the calming body wash, luxurious lotion and soft talc powder are the perfect size for gift-giving and for travel once the family hits the road. Add it to your gift list (or wish list) today. 

Happy Showering!

Hi!

So you might think we’re making a lot of the stretch mark here at the Due blog. Maybe, but you do eventually take off your maternity clothes and the idea that those less-than-attractive silvery marks may last past Junior’s first birthday might be something to consider. My mom never has forgiven me completely for hers. Really. She keeps telling me that slathering on the body butter is the best defense. 

I have to agree. And I’ve just become a fan of the Novena Tangerine Cocoa Butter Belly Cream. First off, I like the luxurious texture. Second I’m in love with anything that smells like cocoa butter — the scent that is summer to me. I’ve considered even putting a dab of Hawaiian Tropic behind each ear. Novena adds tangerine to their formula not only for the lovely aroma but also for its softening and healing products. Yum, yum!

Happy moisturizing, 

Erin

Pregnancy means growing belly and growing belly definitely means stretch marks.  Some women get very noticeable stretch marks while others, the lucky ones, get a few that seem light on the skin.  No matter what kind or how many, no one likes to have them hanging around!

The Tummy Honey 3 Pack includes both prevention and fading solutions. This product addresses both prevention and fading based on all natural formulations. Keeping the skin truly elastic during the growth phase dramatically reduces the chance of getting stretch marks.

We have it all at Due Maternity, not just beautiful maternity clothes

Hi!

The weather is warm and summer is here so you’ve doubtless got the beach or pool on your agenda for the near future. Finding the right maternity swimsuit is a snap here at Due but getting your skin in show-me-off shape requires a little TLC. A great exfoliator like Mama Mio’s Body Buff or Basq’s Citrus Sugar Body Polish is the right place to start. Both smell yummy, too!

Not only will it get rid of all those nasty old dead skin cells that keep your skin from glowing, but great skin care can also help ward off stretch marks. Follow it up with a rich body lotion like Palmer’s or Tummy Honey Body Butter to keep skin soft and supple. 

Enjoy the sun!

ps: if you’re ever concerned about what skin care products are safe to use while you’re pregnant ask your Doc for the A-OK before trying.

Hormonal changes during pregnancy not only bring a wave of different emotions – it’s responsible for various changes in your skin. Some women will have acne breakouts, some will have overly dry skin and some will notice clear or brown spots, especially on the face.

Novena Organic Bearberry Skin Brightening Moisturizer will take care of those changes in skin, especially when it comes to those nasty spots. This moisturizer blends two very effective organic brightening extracts(Bearberry & Licorice) that are safe to use topically during pregnancy.

You’ll find fashionable maternity clothes and excellent health and beauty products at Due Maternity! We’re here to make you look and feel like the Goddess you are!

Mother’s Day is coming up and while you should definitely remember to get our mom something special, don’t forget about that friend or family member who is a new mom!

New moms need pampering and that is just what this Rosy Glow Get Your Glow Back Pack does.  Included: Rosy Glow Lips, Get Your Glow Back Eyes, and Baby Your Face – in a great washable cosmetic bag.

There is so much more than fabulous maternity clothes at Due Maternity!

If your skin feels so itchy and tight, to the point that you feel you need a lotion that is very rich and creamy, Basq Illipe Body Butter is the product for you. This rich body butter is great for those rough spots such as elbows, heels, and feet.

You feel comfortable showing off those cute summer maternity clothes knowing your skin is hydrated and soft!
