we've been talking a lot about pregnancy lately, and wanted to share a few of our favorite ways to use BALLM throughout pregnancy, postpartum, and those tender newborn days.
every BALLM is made with deeply nourishing oils, butters, botanicals, and antioxidant-rich ingredients designed to support the skin barrier and bring comfort to the body during seasons of big change.
1. growing bellies + stretch mark support
our HYDRATE + PROTECT BALLM and YOUTH BALLM are beautiful for supporting stretching skin during pregnancy — belly, hips, breasts, thighs… anywhere your body is growing and changing to make space for baby.
the rich butters and nutrient-dense oils help deeply moisturize the skin and support elasticity throughout pregnancy.
(and truly — if you’re more drawn to the scent and benefits of BALANCE or CALM, those work beautifully too.)
pro tip: apply BALLM right after a shower or bath while skin is still slightly damp for extra nourishment.
2. birth prep + postpartum support
many women use YOUTH BALLM in the final weeks before birth as part of gentle perineal massage to support soft, supple skin before delivery.
the grounding aroma of frankincense can also feel especially comforting during those final days of pregnancy and the early postpartum transition.
and after birth? BALLM becomes the ultimate “everything balm” to keep nearby for dry skin, stretching skin, cracked hands, tired feet, and all the little ways the body asks for extra care while healing and nurturing a newborn.
3. rest + nervous system support
pregnancy insomnia is real.
our CALM BALLM and BALANCE BALLM were created to help support relaxation while delivering rich, lasting moisture to the skin.
our favorite ritual: a nightly foot, neck, or full body massage before bed. a small moment of care can go a long way in helping the body settle and unwind.
4. skin + hormonal support
our BALANCE BALLM is especially loved during pregnancy and postpartum for hormonal skin changes and overall grounding support.
many women use it on the face, chest, arms, or back when navigating hormonal breakouts or dry, reactive skin.
we especially love applying it as an overnight moisture mask so the nutrient-rich oils and botanicals have time to fully soak in.
5. from mama to baby
one of our favorite things about BALLM is that it doesn’t stop with motherhood — it becomes part of the newborn season too.
BALLM can be used on baby's delicate skin for dry patches, flaky areas, little cheeks, tiny toes, baby massage, and everyday moisture support.
simple, nourishing ingredients. no harsh fragrances. just gentle hydration for the whole family.
all of our BALLMS are deeply moisturizing, antioxidant-rich, anti-inflammatory, and filled with skin-loving nutrients for the body's largest organ — your skin.
