We aren’t ashamed to admit our gift range was borne out of pure selfishness. “Oh my goodness, you’re pregnant.” We really wanted to put in a beautifully packaged nutshell everything you want to say when you hear the exciting news whilst giving a truly thoughtful, yet not too personal, gift.
Whilst we were pregnant we were amazed at how far and how fast our skin stretched, itched and reacted to even the silliest of things. So we put together three of our favourites to take the supermama the whole nine yards (and forty weeks) to feeling mentally fit and well with fantastic skin to boot.
Mama Mio Tummy Rub Oil was created for Sian as the answer to increasing skin elasticity and decreasing the likelihood of stretch marks. It is packed full of Omega 3, 6 and 9; the secret ingredients that help build strength and elasticity and will also help prevent aging and saggy, baggy, wrinkled skin. It sets to work immediately making your skin feel nourished and super-hydrated. Itchy belly syndrome, very annoying in pregnancy, will also be relieved. The process of rub-rub-rubbing will become a magic ritual in the forthcoming months.
During pregnancy, we were in a permanent state of ‘parched’ so we drank loads of water and moisturised like maniacs with our OMega Super-rich Body Cream. We wanted to pass on the reward of lovely comments on the pregnancy ‘glow’ and baby-soft skin, so we chose this second item for the Congratulations! Kit. (Note to purchaser – this gift can be shared, there’s no shame in asking to try it out).
Want to know a secret? Our OMega Shower Cream is actually a baby cleanser. We felt that every mama can use a little babying sometimes. That explains why it is so gentle – it won’t strip your skin like a harsh soap. Of course, it is sodium laureth sulfate free, very important to oh-so sensitive mamas-to-be. If that isn’t enough to get to you buy, may we also add that we have won the Pregnancy & Birth Magazine Best Pampering Product Award for our gifts – twice!
All of these products are about building the strength and elasticity of your skin and make you feel oh so pampered and gorgeous. Because you are now a supermama under construction and you need treats specially designed to take you the whole nine yards and get you to forty weeks feeling mentally fit and well with fantastic skin…. What more can you ask for (besides a pain free birth which, alas, is beyond even our products power!)?
Whilst under construction you will be amazed at how far and how fast your skin can stretch… Our job is to moisturize, nourish and elasticise your skin. Your job is to pamper yourself; luxuriate and massage while dreaming of flat tummies! To hear us bragging about our ingredients in lavish detail please see the individual products:
Tummy Rub Oil
OMega Super-rich Body Cream
OMega Shower Cream
Tummy Rub Oil Rub on twice daily from above your boobs to below your bum and all the way round. You will want to use it for at least four months after baby has arrived in your world. This is because it helps keep your skin toned and tight as you shrink back down to the normal you.
OMega Super-rich Body Cream We use it on hands, legs and arms; every day. We love it as an after- sun cream. Our kids love it on scaly winter skin. Our husbands have been known to steal it too (we discourage that – it is for supermamas, after all!).
OMega Shower Cream Use in the shower or in the bath. We’re hoping you already know how! Amazing US Marketing guru, Cathy O, even uses it as her facial cleanser and thinks it’s the biz. Having worked with Crème de la Mer and Jo Malone she should know. All our products are totally safe to use whilst breastfeeding, just ensure your nipples are cream-free as your baby only wants you!
