Our skincare range is designed to care for your body through the final weeks of pregnancy, birth and recovery. Each product is Zita West's own blend of essential oils and plant extracts, created from her years of experience as a midwife.
Before birth, Back Ease Massage Oil, enriched with moisturising jojoba oil, supports relaxing massage as your bump grows, and Preconditioning Down Under is a perineal massage oil to use daily from 34 weeks. After birth, Comfort Down Under is a soothing perineal cream that is safe to use with stitches, and Restore and Renew is a calming Lavender bath oil to help you unwind. Shop by stage in our pregnancy skincare and postnatal skincare collections.
Frequently asked questions
Is your skincare safe to use during pregnancy?
Yes, our range is designed for use in pregnancy and the postnatal period. As with any new product, do a patch test before first use, and check the full ingredients list on each product page if you have any allergies or sensitivities.
When should I start perineal massage?
We recommend starting from 34 weeks of pregnancy, using Preconditioning Down Under daily. Regular perineal massage helps keep the perineum supple and elastic, reducing the potential for tearing during labour.
Comfort Down Under is designed for the days immediately after delivery and is safe to use with stitches, and Restore and Renew helps you relax during recovery. Both are included in the Ultimate New Mum Pack alongside our postnatal supplements.
