UK Life Part 7: Skin Care During Pregnancy and After Giving Birth

Assalaualaikum

Hallo everyone, nice to see you again.
Today I'm already 13 days after giving birth.
I had laboured on 25th February 2015, for the details I will write another blog for it.


Today I want to share about my skincare routine during pregnancy.

Acne come during pregnancy! "Higher levels of hormones called androgens are at least partly responsible for pregnancy breakouts"

In the first trimester, I didn't have any problem. I was barely no makeup on my face. The acne problems came in the second trimester and  I couldn't do anything about it, as you know, we should avoid chemical products so I just tried to release it..."There's no way to prevent the problem". However, it was hard to ignore the blemish!hahaa  I was using Tea Tree series from The body shop and FTE SKII. Fortunately, on my 8 months pregnancy, my skin had changed and became normal. Acne on my face become less. I don't know whether it was the effect of my skincare routine or my hormone became normal.

Some tips from me to camouflage it:
1. I use Vitamin C Serum 
2. Use Tea Tree BB Cream, very recommended for blemish skin. It does not cause another acne comes, however, it is not full coverage but enough for camouflage

3. Loose powder 
4. Lip matte 


All of those products by @thebodyshop, although I only put makeup on just occasionally not daily. 
On daily basis: I use tea tree facial wash, Vit C serum as moisturizer without any powders, matte lipstick by @thebodyshop and the eyebrows &eyeshadow by mac. And avoid to see urself in the mirror hahahaaaa 


All in all, I prefer light products from well known natural brand because as a mother-to-be, we have an instinct that will leads us to protect our baby, u will consider "baby first" rather than yourself... aaaa life is good 😊😊



After I'm giving birth, I change my skincare routine to prevent acne and the scars of acne.
So I choose cliniques series, however, I plan to use it only a month. In additions, I still using FTE SKII. 
Clinique for blemish skin, it works on me!

Skincare & vitamins after giving birth.. 
1. Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Series ( Facial Wash, Toner & Lotion), using these for day & night.. @cliniqueuk 
2. SK-II FTE, using FTE since 8 months of pregnancy and still counting.. highly recommended 👍🏻





3. Vitamin Blackmores, no doubt about it. Walaupun di UK ga ada jd mesti import pesen by amazon ke Australi dan lebih murah beli di Indo huuu 
4. Vitamin Pregnacare buat new mom, very recommended to prevent hair loss after giving birth.. dan sampe skrg si blm nemu rambut rontok ya #alhamdulillah
 5. Hasil muka nya skrg pake clinique ga kering, ga ada jerawat dan ga lengket terus jd dewy pdhal ga pake bedak ato apapun..

Hopefully what I've learned can be useful for the society and others, although it's just a simple thing such how to swim together with your baby safely.

There are some advantages for baby join baby swimming class such as build his/her character to be more confident, enhance bonding between parent and baby, healthy together (of course), sleeping tra...

hello again it's been a while yaaa. today I want to share my story related to my baby adaptation ability. On 22nd September 2017, I moved from the United Kingdom back home to Indonesia. Travel with baby 6 months years old was quite challenging. I had to prepare every detail of baby needs and also my stamina. A week before flying to Indonesia, I started to eat and sleep well and also did yoga. During almost 24 hours flight, alhamdulillah we can manage the situation. Although, at the first flight from Birmingham to Istanbul, we had not that comfortable flight. The plane was so hot, and my baby had a pup. But overall, it was still okay. Then, on the second flight from Istanbul to Jakarta, alhamdulillah my baby slept during the flight. When we arrive in Jakarta, my baby had several issues: 1. Jetlag she needs a whole week for adaptation the sleep hour of Indonesian Time. During the daylight, I have to wake up her although she is still sleepy. it's to help he...
