This pregnancy, I’ve really been focusing on self-care. These have been my go-to rituals:
1. Lymphatic drainage massages with Gloria Hincapie (@gloriahincapie)
Some of the benefits of lymphatic drainage are:
- Helps your body get rid of harmful toxins
- Reduces water retention and bloat
- Improves blood circulation
- Reduces the appearance of cellulite
- The light-pressure massage is very relaxing
2. Coffee body scrub
For this ritual, I use ground coffee and scrub all over my body. Not only is the smell amazing (!), but it also has so many benefits, like:
- Reduces inflammation and puffiness
- Improves blood circulation
- Gives your skin a radiant glow
- Removes dead skin cells
- Improves the texture of your skin
- Reduces the appearance of cellulite
3. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!!
That has been a major ‘must’ for me during my pregnancy.
I have been loving body oils and belly masks. I recommend using these:
4. Last, but not least, I have been drinking SO much water because true hydration comes from the inside!
