Sonam Kapoor has never believed in gatekeeping. The skin-savvy actress, now mother, has often let viewers in on her day-to-day routine. Even her beauty routine.
Because stretch marks and pigmentation are a part and parcel of pregnancy, Kapoor built herself a bullet-proof routine that maintained the health and appearance of her skin. And, yes, she shared all of it with her fans. You’ve got to check it out.
Stretch Marks
Sonam Kapoor’s routine was stretch marks-proof, and it involved just two products by the Moms. Co. She’d simply massage her body — trunk to thighs — with them thrice every single day.
The Moms Co. Natural Body Butter contains shea and cocoa butter as well as oils that improve the skin’s elasticity; providing comfort to the belly, breasts, and hips during pregnancy. It even soothes itchiness and dryness effectively and promises 24-hour moisturisation.
The next product was The Moms Co. Natural Stretch Oil, an infusion of 7 powerful, non-greasy oils as well as Vitamin E, that did something similar for Sonam’s skin. It increases elasticity but that’s not it. Powered by Jojoba Oil it reduces redness. Rosehip Oil and Seabuckthorn Oil support the production of collagen for healthier, newer skin. Coconut Oil heals quicker while Vitamin E and other oils soothe itching, and stretchy skin.
Both of these are cruelty-free, toxin-free, and dermatologically tested.
Kapoor even mentioned adding a little bit of Rosehip Oil to Moms Co. products as a precaution. This is possibly because of the oil’s ability to repair tissues and regenerate cells; diminishing marks on the body naturally. Because she followed this routine, she didn’t experience stretch marks at all; with the exception of linea nigra (a dark line running down the stomach).
Pigmentation
Sonam drank Collagen (containing Vitamin C) every day to prevent pigmentation. While these aren’t available in India, the Nutrova Collagen+Antioxidants is one alternative you can turn to for glowing, youthful skin. It treats pigmentation, dullness, and roughness and enhances the firmness and elasticity of the skin.
Other Products She Used
She even recommended wearing lots of the EltaMD UV Clear Facial Sunscreen SPF 46 SPF and soaking in the sunlight. Kapoor applied the Moms Co. Vitamin C Face Cream and Moms Co. Vitamin C Face Serum as the base. You can shop them below.
That’s it! Thanks, Sonam! We love queens that don’t gatekeep!
