PREGNANCY

Pregnancy Acne

Breakouts are rather common during pregnancy. An increase in hormones called androgens can cause the glands in your skin to grow and produce more sebum. This oil can clog pores and lead to bacteria, inflammation, and breakouts. To help you get through pregnancy breakouts, Ksisters has curated *Mamacare Banish Blemish Kit - Refreshed!.

Stretch marks are tiny tears in the supporting layers of tissue under your skin as it gets pulled tight to the limit during pregnancy. You may or may not get them though as it is mainly due to genetics. But it's okay mama, these marks signify your long months of nurturing and carrying your young one!

PREGNANCY & POST NATAL

Water Retention

Water retention is caused by your body holding more water than usual when you are pregnant and post-pregnancy. Extra water tends to gather in the lowest parts of the body especially due to the hot, sunny Singapore weather, standing for a long period of time, dietary imbalances, increased caffeine intake and insufficient water intake. The pressure of your growing womb can also affect the blood flow in your legs. 

*Mamacare Water Retention Kit consists of the highly raved Gongmi Tea and Gongmi Enzyme. When used together, it helps to detox and purify your body from the inside, promoting a healthier you!

Gongmi Tea helps with water retention & bloating.

Gongmi Enzyme helps with constipation, better bowel movement.

POST NATAL

Hair Loss

Postpartum hair loss is very common and it can really hurt our self-confidence and self-esteem. Aside from taking care of our baby, family and work, many of us struggle with our new hair issue by trying different hair care products (only to find many unsuitable) and going for scalp appointments. All these takes up a lot of every new mum's precious time.

When used together, the Lavien Ceramic Massage Plate, Phytopecia Hair Boosting Shampoo and Phytopecia Hair Tonic helps to promote hair growth. The newly grown hair will be thicker and healthier resulting in a more voluminous hair. After all, healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp! Begin your luscious locks journey with Mamacare Postpartum Hair Loss Kit. 

Breasts Engorgement

As you embark on your breastfeeding journey, you may encounter engorgement; when there is a sudden influx of milk, blood and other fluids in your breasts. This causes your breasts to feel very full, hard, swollen and painful, and your nipples to appear flattened and tight, making latch-on challenging. A gentle breast massage with Mamacare Postnatal Massage Kit can really help to get milk flowing and prepare the breasts to release milk, thus relieving and also preventing engorgement in the future! 

Lavien Ceramic Massage Plate is made of high quality ceramic with a comfortable grip. Coupled with Lavien Natural Firming Oil, these two products aid in softening the breasts to allow babies to latch on easily, stimulate blood and milk circulations in breasts and best of all, firm and contours the breasts.

FOR ALL MUMMIES 

 Most new mums have dark circles under their eyes, making them look tired and drawn. It is no surprise that lack of sleep is often the culprit! To add on, juggling work-life balance is never an easy task so we often look for the least time consuming products to quickly yet effectively ensure glowing, radiant skin. 

*Mamacare Bright Eyes & Skin Quick Fix consists of everybody’s favourite, IWLT All In One Glow Concentrate Ampoule and Lavien Firming Lift Eye Cream. IWLT All In One Glow Concentrate Ampoule is not just a highly concentrated ampoule but also features a 4-in-1 care - Calming, Brightening, Moisturising, and Wrinkle Care. Lavien Firming Lift Eye Cream acts as a brightening and wrinkle reducing double-action product. When used together, they help to brighten your skin complexion, giving you a more refreshed look!
