Are you worried about post baby acne or dry unbalanced skin during postpartum?

If you've just had a baby, you may have discovered that the glow of pregnancy has been replaced by the bumps of acne. There are tremendous hormonal changes that go on during pregnancy and immediately afterward that cause skin problems, plus the stress of new motherhood can trigger hormones that cause pimples.

You may find acne stays at bay until you stop nursing, only to erupt with the return of your periods. But in case it lingers or, to minimize eruptions in the meantime, mahu suggests the following:

• Wash with a mild cleanser like mahu Baby Wash twice a day, don't scrub as this may make acne worse because it can make the skin tougher and further clog pores.

• Exfoliate daily 

• Use mahu Facial Balancing Moisturiser twice daily to help balance the skin.

You may also experience very dry skin post baby as breastfeeding draws a lot of moisture from the skin leaving it vulnerable to dry and flaky patches.

Unbalanced skin post baby is a very common occurance.
