The essentials
Pregnancy-safe Facial Treatments for Mums
Pregnancy and postnatal hormones change your skin in ways no one warned you about. You may get melasma patches across the cheeks, sudden breakouts after a decade of clear skin, or dull skin from broken sleep. Mass-market facials rarely take any of this into account, and many use ingredients that aren't safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Our facial treatments are designed around these changes. Each treatment is adjusted for hormonal skin, and every product is checked to make sure it is safe during pregnancy. Our therapists are trained to look at your skin at each visit and work out what it needs that day, which may not be the same as last month.
Trimester by trimester
Which facial, when
Both facials are adjusted for hormonal skin. This is how they fit your pregnancy and the year after.
-
01
First trimester
The Glowing Skin Facial is safe from the first trimester. We do not use essential oils that should be avoided in the first trimester.
-
02
Second & third trimester
Choose either facial. The Glow & Contour Experience is best from the second trimester onwards.
-
03
The postnatal year
Both facials suit the postnatal year, when broken sleep leaves skin dull and tired.
Benefits
What your skin gets back
After one session, mums consistently tell us they see a visible change in four areas.
- 01
Brightens and evens skin tone, including melasma patches that pregnancy hormones triggered.
- 02
Refines pores and smooths texture without harsh acids.
- 03
Soothes and deeply hydrates the skin barrier weakened by hormonal changes.
- 04
Promotes a fresh, radiant glow that lasts well past the session.
What we use
Pregnancy-Safe Ingredients
We check every product we use against a list of ingredients that are safe for pregnant and breastfeeding mums, and we update that list all the time. We do not use retinoids, salicylic acid above a safe level, or essential oils that should be avoided in the first trimester.
If you're not sure about an ingredient in a product you already use at home, bring it in and we'll review it for you, free of charge.
What we avoid
Why a regular facial isn't enough
Many spa facials use acids, retinoids, or essential oils that aren't suitable during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Some are fine in theory, but others are best avoided completely. Our treatments always err on the side of caution.
Instead, we use Cold Machine Technology, LPG V-Lift and gentle enzymatic exfoliation. These give the same results without any of the risk.
