Stretch Mark Serum

When your bump is growing fast, the skin across it can feel tight, dry and maddeningly itchy, especially in the evening. This serum was developed by midwives for exactly that stage. It's a rich blend of sweet almond, coconut and argan oils with calendula, vitamin E and a little beeswax, so it sinks in and keeps skin feeling comfortable for longer.

Massage it into your bump, breasts, hips and thighs wherever things feel stretched. The midwives suggest using it straight after a bath or shower on damp skin. It has a gentle scent of geranium, grapefruit and lavender. After the birth you can keep using it on dry skin, or on a healed C-section scar.

It won't promise to stop stretch marks, and the brand says so too. What it does is keep skin well moisturised, which is the first thing to try for dry, itchy pregnancy skin. If the itching is intense, especially on your hands and feet, tell your midwife, because it can be a sign of a liver condition called obstetric cholestasis.
