It's a familiar name in pregnancy body care, and during pregnancy it's commonly massaged into the areas most prone to stretching as your body changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe oil has a fast-absorbing texture, so it sinks in rather than sitting on the surface, and it's non-comedogenic. Used on the body, it may also help relieve the appearance of the dry, tight and itchy skin that many people notice during pregnancy.

Do not apply to open wounds or broken skin, and avoid contact with the eyes — if the product enters the eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. This product does not provide sun protection; use a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30 when exposed to the sun. Results vary from person to person.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe oil contains vitamin A (retinyl palmitate) at a low cosmetic concentration and a very low rosemary oil concentration; the manufacturer considers it suitable for use throughout pregnancy when used as directed. While breastfeeding, it may be used on the body, but avoid applying it directly to the nipples or any area that may come into contact with the baby's mouth. It contains fragrance allergens naturally present in the plant oils and fragrance. A patch test is recommended before first use: apply a small amount to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours, and discontinue use if redness, swelling, itching or irritation develops. Its safety has not been assessed in children under three years of age; it is recommended only for those aged three and older.
