Blotchy cheeks
Pregnant women have up to 50% more blood flowing through their veins. This increase in blood volume can lead to blotchy, red marks appearing on your cheeks. At times, they can look like a smattering of small, red pimples even though they aren't.
These marks can be frustrating, so many mothers-to-be will reach for their makeup to try and cover it up. Many foundations can have harmful ingredients in them, so we have made two different types of natural foundation that comes in five different shades.
They are:
- Hydrating Treatment Protective Foundation SPF 12+
- Clarifying Treatment Protective Powder SPF8+
- Clarifying Treatment Protective Foundation SPF 12+
