As I updated in my last post, I have been suffering with severe itching with my change or hormones and incredibly dry skin, I had been using lush cream to help, which it was but I was needing to reapply 4 or 5 times a day to keep on top of the itch. This week I was fortunate enough to have been sent a box of samples from Weleda…..lots of wonderful things for myself, bear and for our new cub too. I thought I would try a few of the samples out, seeing as they are a holistic, natural company I thought I might be ok with their stuff. Turns out I was right….
skin food
One of the samples was this skin food, designed for dry and rough skin it moisturised my legs (my worst effected area) so intensely, the first day I tried it I only needed to reapply it twice, the following day, just once!! At roughly £10 a tube, it isn’t the cheapest, but can currently be found in Holland and Barrett’s on their buy one get one half price sale. I have also used this on my face, feet and even treated hubby to a foot rub too!!
Stretch mark oil
The Weleda stretch mark oil made an equally good impression on me this week, it rubs on just like any other oil, but the smell is amazing, instantly makes me feel relaxed. I’m getting very paranoid about stretch marks now, so I am using this once or twice a day (I barely bothered with any cream when I was pregnant with bear, but my bump appeared a lot quicker this time around).
Was just a quick one this morning, to update you on my new loves, because sometimes mummy needs a bit of a treat too! Busy week ahead for us this week, so hopefully will post an updated picture thread towards the end of the week.
