Shine Bright, Mama! Your OB-GYN-Approved Guide to Beauty in Pregnancy

Hello to all you beautiful mamas-to-be! Here's the thing about pregnancy - it's a wild, fantastic ride of transformation. Sure, only some changes will have you reaching for the selfie stick. But hey, your beauty routine doesn't need to take a backseat while you're growing a little human. In fact, the big question is, can you safely rock your makeup while pregnant? Absolutely! And who better to dish out this advice than OB-GYNs, the real MVPs of maternity.


Pregnancy 101: It's Glow Time, But Expect Some Hurdles

Hormones in overdrive bring a roller-coaster of changes to your skin, hair, and nails. Here's the lowdown:

Skin: Think everything from the coveted pregnancy glow to acne and hyperpigmentation.

Hair: Get ready for a thicker mane, thanks to those soaring hormone levels.

Nails: While some ladies enjoy faster growth, others might find their nails soft or brittle

Revamping your beauty routine is crucial to keep up with these changes. It's time for some pregnancy-safe skincare, hydration, and a dollop of sunscreen to fend off that 'mask of pregnancy.'
