Basq in the
Moment
Whoever came up with the phrase "the glow of
pregnancy" was probably never actually pregnant. Some days it seems
the glow is more like a furnace. Itchy belly, dry swollen feet,
breakouts, dark circles from the sleepless nights between the
hormones and the stretching, it's like your skin doesn't even fit
any more.
But so many products aimed at pregnant women are
just regular formulas dressed up in new packages, and many contain
ingredients you're better off avoiding.
Introducing Basq, a
brand new maternity skincare line that truly meets the specific
needs of pregnant skin with safe, great smelling, and soothing
ingredients. Each product addresses a different skincare concern: a
belly oil that soothes and hydrates your expanding midsection, a
facial cleanser that balances hormonally-challenged skin, a cooling
lotion for tired swollen legs, and a lavender-pear aromatherapy
blend to ease stress and aid sleep.
The entire product line
is the result of extensive research and interviews with moms,
midwives, and skincare experts. Before launching Basq, founders
Kelli Kenny and Lauren Parisier spent a year asking women what they
really wanted and gathering feedback from professionals. The result
is a unique blend of modern science and the ancient traditions of
aromatherapy.
Finally, here's a great gift to give your
pregnant self, or your favorite new mom or mom-to-be, that's
actually all about her for a change.
You glow, girl.
