When I was pregnant, I was paranoid about the products I put on my skin for fear of chemicals harming my unborn child. And now that she’s here, I’m equally cautious about the products I use on her, preferring organic products. If I had known about Belli skincare products, I would have bought up big!

Founded by physician Dr Jason Rubin, the range was born when he became concerned about what effects the chemicals in regular skincare might be having on his pregnant wife and  their unborn child.

Armed with his background knowledge in teratology, he developed Belli’s exclusive screening process to search millions of  pages of published medical research to help women avoid ingredients even remotely linked to birth defects. There are three lines; Belli Pregnancy, Belli Motherhood, and Belli Baby, with everything from stretchmark cream to hand sanitisers to shampoo. Each product is allergy tested and free of artificial dyes and parabens. And you can even shop by concern, whether it’s for tired eyes or for acne. Oh, I do love things that make life easier for new mums!
