Introducing our SOS Balm for new mums from MommySpa.
Many new mothers complain of sore, cracked nipples, chapped lips during breastfeeding, or inflamed scars . The 100% natural SOS Balm puts an end to all of these problems. Thanks to the concentrated vegan active ingredients from a healing blend of plants and herbs, the melt-in-the-mouth formula accelerates wound healing while preventing sore skin.  

At the heart of the melt-in-the-mouth formula is nutrient-rich organic cupuaçu butter , which binds four times its own weight in water, providing intense hydration and moisture. Its extremely high water absorption capacity is even significantly higher than that of lanolin (a common ingredient in nipple ointments—but not vegan!), making cupuaçu butter an extremely moisturizing component for vegan natural cosmetics. Thanks to ingredients such as phytosterols, antioxidants, and vitamin E, cupuaçu butter is credited with wound-healing, antibacterial, and regenerating properties and is therefore often used in healing ointments. 

In combination with skin-protecting organic shea butter , affectionately known in Africa as the precious “women’s gold,” the skin’s moisture retention is regulated, irritations are soothed, and skin regeneration is promoted. Shea butter is particularly rich in oleic acids such as palmitic acid, linoleic acid, and stearic acid, which work together to insulate against environmental influences, bind moisture, promote cell regeneration, and keep the skin soft and supple. Sensitive skin, which often reacts sensitively to chemical ingredients, particularly benefits from the rich plant fat of the miracle balm shea butter.

An equally important component of the texture is cold-pressed organic olive oil.  In folk medicine, it is considered the base oil for healing ointments because it is rich in essential fatty acids, which resemble the skin’s own lipids and thus contribute to cell repair and regeneration. Rich in many valuable minerals and important trace elements, these provide an antiseptic effect, disinfect the skin, and simultaneously promote wound healing.

Chamomile extract  soothes and cares for dry, flaky, or chapped skin, reduces inflammation and itching, and promotes scar-free healing of minor injuries. Thanks to the extraction process, it is non-allergenic and therefore particularly skin-friendly .

The SOS Balm is rounded off with skin-protecting vitamin E , which helps maintain the skin’s natural barrier function, repairs small cracks, and promotes cell regeneration, making it more resistant to bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. Vitamin E also has an antioxidant effect, so with regular use, the skin builds a kind of protective barrier against external influences.

Where to apply:

LIPS

 • During pregnancy or breastfeeding, apply daily (or as often as desired) to chapped lips 

NIPPLES

• Apply to nipples twice daily during the 2nd and 3rd trimester to prevent cracks and sore skin 

• While breastfeeding: Use daily between breastfeeding sessions as needed. Rub a small amount between your fingertips and apply to the nipples or areola. No need to remove before breastfeeding as it is fragrance-free and odorless. 

SCARS

• Apply the balm twice a day to the scar tissue where the wound has closed for at least one month and massage in gently to care for the scar and to positively influence scar formation

The perineum is the area that is most stressed during childbirth . When performed regularly and correctly, perineal massage promotes the elasticity and stretchability of the perineal tissue, thus specifically preparing the perineum for birth. Massage also helps prepare for birth not only physically but also mentally.

The skin-friendly Pretty Perineum perineal massage oil , with its particularly well-tolerated and wound-healing organic care oil composition of almond, jojoba and evening primrose oil, is the ideal care for perineal preparation and care of the perineum after birth.

Pure, cold-pressed organic almond oil , which is considered hypoallergenic (non-allergenic), contains many unsaturated fatty acids that penetrate deep into the skin, making it soft and supple. The proven anti-inflammatory effect of the mild organic jojoba oil makes it a suitable lipid component for wound care, while precious oil from the medicinal plant evening primrose from controlled organic cultivation supports the synthesis of collagen and thus promotes skin regeneration. With its soothing, pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties, valuable St. John’s wort extract ensures faster wound healing after childbirth. Protective vitamin E  helps maintain the skin’s natural barrier function, repairs small cracks and promotes cell regeneration, making it more resistant to bacteria, viruses and other pathogens. Vitamin E also has an antioxidant effect, so that with regular use the skin builds up a kind of protective barrier against external influences.

Application of perineum massage oil

Many pregnant women initially can’t imagine how much their birth canals will expand during labor. Some women think they’re “too narrow” or that the baby “would never fit through there.” However, perineal massages soften the perineal tissue and make it more stretchy. In addition, physical experiences such as palpating and feeling the birthing space during perineal massage can allay fears. Perineal massage therefore helps make the perineal tissue more elastic and to prepare for birth.

Starting at the 34th week of pregnancy, you can massage your perineum three to four times a week . Of course, your partner can also do the perineal massage. Just experiment and find what works best for you. Make sure your fingernails are short and well-cleaned before massaging yourself.

How to perform the perineal massage:

1. First, apply a few drops of perineal massage oil to your perineum. Note that this oil is usually intended for external use only. You don’t need any oil internally because your vagina is naturally moist.
2. Then massage both sides next to and under the labia majora in small circular movements to slowly warm the tissue.
3. Now insert your thumb two to three centimeters into your vagina. Stretch the tissue between your thumb and index finger.
4. Then massage the perineum in small circular motions. Imagine a clock face: At the anus, it’s 6 o’clock, and at the vaginal opening, it’s 12 o’clock. Massage from 6 o’clock to 3 o’clock, and from 6 o’clock to 9 o’clock.
5. Finally, gently stretch downwards with your thumb towards 5 o’clock and 7 o’clock.

The massage should last approximately 5 to 10 minutes. During the massage, you will feel light to strong pressure, depending on the intensity of the perineal massage. This sensation is similar to the stretching pain before the baby’s head emerges during labor. Over time, you will likely find that you can let go more and more, and that it becomes easier for you to allow this pressure and stretching.

However, if you experience severe pain or bleeding, you should stop the massage immediately and seek medical advice.

The Silky Skin pregnancy shower oil owes its particularly intensive care effect to the combination of mild organic almond oil and intensively nourishing organic olive oil . The combination provides a real nutritional kick that moisturizes, smoothes and firms the skin, thanks to the monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The care oil duo is also very effective against external irritations and inflammations of the skin and is particularly suitable for dry and sensitive skin.

• Prevents the formation of stretch marks when used regularly while showering
• The composition of organic olive oil & organic almond oil protects the skin from drying out and helps reduce stretch marks thanks to its elasticity-promoting properties
• Skin-care organic coconut oil moisturizes the skin, supports its protective function and keeps it supple and soft
• Organic bisabolol from chamomile relieves feelings of tension and has a soothing effect on the skin
• Vitamin E regenerates skin cells and promotes their renewal

Regular use of nourishing care products can not only effectively prevent stretch marks during pregnancy, but also help existing stretch marks to fade faster and more after birth and help the skin regain elasticity and firmness.

The Silky Skin pregnancy shower oil has been specially developed to be fragrance-neutral for pregnant women who are sensitive to odors. This means that the oil can also be used safely during breastfeeding, as it does not mask the mother’s own body odor.
