Let it glow, let it glow, let it glow! Being pregnant in a winter wonderland can be delightful as you don comfy sweaters, snuggle by the fire, and celebrate the holidays with your baby bump. But it can also be a little frightful, bringing some extra skincare challenges for moms-to-be.
Your skin goes through a lot as it stretches during pregnancy: hormone changes and increased blood flow can lead to stretch marks, dryness, itching, and even sensitivity to the cold. Add in the combination of frigid winter weather and drying indoor heat, and it’s easy to see why you need some skincare TLC.
Don’t worry, we’ve got your single-ingredient pregnancy skincare saviors right here! As a trusted made-in-the-USA brand with over 50 years of dedication to quality skincare, Cococare is here to support you during this special time.
Ready to start soothing stretched skin and softening dry patches so you can glow all winter long? Here are our top two pregnancy skincare must-haves that can calm and protect against winter dryness while promoting elasticity. Both are 100% natural, plant-based, easy to use, and affordable – now that’s a word you don’t hear a lot when it comes to pregnancy!
1. Cococare 100% Cocoa Butter Stick
Cococare’s iconic yellow stick has been the pregnancy skincare secret for generations of women. This all-natural, cocoa-bean derived moisturizer is packed with Vitamin E and fatty acids that deliver deep hydration and nourishment to your baby belly and beyond – all in one convenient stick. (And yes, it smells like chocolate!)
Why Expecting Moms Love It:
●Relieves dry, itchy skin: Perfect for soothing stomach skin as it stretches – and on any other areas that feel dry or itchy.
●Minimizes stretch marks and pigmentation: Cocoa butter has long been used to help improve skin elasticity and minimize the appearance of stretch marks.
●Versatile enough for the whole body: Use it to soften lips, calm dry cuticles, and even ease sore feet after a long day.
How to Use: Simply pop off the cap, push up in the center of the stick to raise the product, and apply Cococare’s 100% Cocoa Butter to any areas that need extra moisture. The solid formula makes it ideal for your purse, hospital overnight bag, or diaper bag, so you can reapply throughout the day for some instant relief.
2. Cococare 100% Coconut Oil
Lightweight, moisturizing, and all-natural, Cococare’s 100% Coconut Oil is your winter pregnancy skin care companion. This single-ingredient oil is loaded with fatty acids that help lock in moisture, support collagen production, and boost elasticity, all of which are essential for skin health during pregnancy. This is serious multitasking skincare.
Why Expecting Moms Love It:
●Deeply hydrates and promotes elasticity: Coconut oil can help skin stay supple as it stretches, working as a natural defense against stretch marks.
●Soothes irritation: Just apply a small amount and rub in to help calm any dry, itchy patches on the body.
●Excellent as a hair treatment: Massage a bit of coconut oil into your hair and scalp for a deep conditioning treatment that helps combat winter dryness, tame frizz, and keep your hair healthy during hormonal changes.
How to Use: For best results, warm a small amount of coconut oil between your hands and apply it to your skin, or massage into your scalp and hair as an overnight treatment.
