While it is normal and most likely that the care of the little one takes precedence,  taking care of oneself as a mother is of equal importance, if not more.  In line with this philosophy, Himalaya has launched a range of totally safe and gentle products formulated for expecting and new mothers.  A pioneer in the wellness industry since 1930, Himalaya is a household name and has a range of over 300 healthcare and personal care products.

Branded under the name Himalaya FOR MOMS, the products include those related to Body care as well as Nursing care.  The body care products are Soothing Body Butter, Toning Massage Oil and Anti-Rash Cream while you have the Nipple Care Butter catering to Nursing care.  Thoughtfully formulated by Himalaya using their proprietary science along with the principles of Ayurveda these  products ensure that they invigorate while they heal.

Soothing Body Butter

A pleasantly fragrant daily use cream that not only moisturizes but also nourishes your skin, this product is mainly made up of Cocoa butter and Glycerin. While the former is a natural antioxidant which hydrates and balances the skin, the latter ensures that the skin remains supple for a long time. The cream is also effective is relieving itching and has a soothing effect on the skin, thereby acting as a natural de-stressing agent.  With a high content of Vitamin E which protects the skin from damage and irritation, the cream comes in the three rejuvenating fragrances of Lavender, Rose and Jasmine. The cream is available in 50ml, 100ml and 200ml packs and needs to be applied twice daily for best results.

Completely hydrating on the skin, I found the fragrances subtle and totally pleasant.
