Introducing our new M2B range!!!



It is that time in life when all the girlfriends, sisters and cousins are pregnant. That must be in the water?!?!?

Anyway, to look after all the Mums to be, I am introducing a new range of products especially formulated for pregnant women.

Why?
When pregnant, the woman's body goes thru different changes : the skin is stretching, breasts are changing, legs are carrying more weight.
During pregnancy the body's levels (EFA*) are at their lowest which has a direct effect on the skin elasticity. This can accelerate the ageing process and often lead to stretch marks. To combat these effects our products contain ingredients to supplement the level of EFA's directly where they are needed.

Our M2B treatments include
- a full body scrub that works on several levels to dissolve lack lustre cells and polish the skin to perfection.
- a massage with our Baby touch massage oil... it is a luxurious moisturizer enriched with nine naturally humectants. It is extremely moisturising and help improve the skin elasticity, promote the skin's barrier function and resplenish dry skin.
- a foot ritual including a soak and a foot massage with our revitalizing lotion for tired feet who carry more weight than usual.

Our treatments are tailored to the Mums to B need and one of them is specialized for the 4th trimester and onward when the body needs recovering and prepares to bounce back.

*Essential fatty acids (EFA’s) are long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids that are necessary for normal cellular function.

Show those legs...

You don't need a real reason to expose your legs...here are a few advices to follow to go from long skirt to short shorts...

- Exfoliate : Twice a week, using a gentle body exfoliant or a dry brush. Remember the benefits of dry brushing,it is perfect for cell renewal and blood circulation!
- Moisturise : Like the face, the rest of the body needs attention. Grab a good body lotion that won't leave any greasy residue and will keep your legs nice and smooth.
- Throw away your razors and start waxing... It lasts longer, exfoliate the skin, makes the hair root wicker and your skin softer.

- Exercise : Power walking is a receipe that works pretty well, swimming, cardio, anything that makes them move!!
- Look after your feet : REMEMBER, they carry you all day long, everywhere, anytime... So time to aknowledge them and give them a bit of pampering. Get a Spa pedicure and even add a bit of luxury and get a paraffin mask... Polish with a sexy RED and they will thank you for it!

Still time to leave the skirt behind until the cold season arrives!
