Dry Skin and Scalp

I usually am very happy with my skin, aside from the occasional acne. I thought you were suppose to glow during pregnancy? My skin is dry and gross looking even after moisturizer, and my scalp is peeling .... Almost looks like baby cradles cap.... Help???? What to do?

  • As for your scalp, try a sulfate free shampoo/product. My favorite is Loreals cleansing conditioner. It works as a shampoo and conditioner in one.
  • Try a natural shampoo for sensitive scalp. For body- unrefined coconut oil is really good. I use jojoba oil on my face at night and that keeps it moisturizer for the next day.
  • I second the coconut oil! I do a full mask on my hair & scalp at least once a week. You only have to leave it in for like 15 minutes to an hour but I usually do mine overnight for best results.

    For skin mine hasn't been too much of an issue but I have been using the palmers coco butter to try and avoid dry skin/itchiness.
