Why does orange peel appear in pregnant women?
The appearance of orange peel skin is linked to hormonal activity , and more particularly to the increase of estrogen in the body. Thus, adolescent girls, women on hormonal contraceptives, expectant mothers and women approaching menopause are prime targets for cellulite. This also explains why these gentlemen, the lucky ones, do not know the orange peel!
During pregnancy, estrogens have the role of preparing the body for the development of the baby and for breastfeeding. They therefore increase fat storage, and the fat cells - called adipocytes in the jargon - multiply and increase in size and number under the skin.
Added to this is another hormone, prolactin , which will prepare your body for breastfeeding by also encouraging the body to store fat. But that's not all: prolactin also promotes water retention. Consequence : blood circulation is more sluggish, the body drains liquids, toxins and fats less well, which accumulate in the hypodermis, that is to say deep down - under the dermis and epidermis.
These two female hormones therefore stimulate the accumulation of fat , to the great dismay of many pregnant women and young mothers, but rest assured, there are solutions to prevent the appearance of orange peel skin during pregnancy, and eliminate after childbirth!
How to combat orange peel skin on the thighs?
Orange peel, once established, is particularly difficult to dislodge . This is why we advise you to adopt some good habits during your pregnancy, to limit its appearance. These small gestures will also be beneficial for baby and his good development, all the more reason to integrate them into everyday life ;-)
- Eat healthily , favoring fruits and vegetables, and limiting fatty, too salty or too sweet foods. A diet too rich in lipids and carbohydrates promotes fatty deposits and orange peel skin.
- Drink water and herbal teas regularly ( at least 1.5L per day ) to activate internal drainage.
- Have regular physical activity . Certainly, pregnancy is not the best time to do a series of sports sessions, but maintaining moderate physical activity is a good way to activate blood circulation, and therefore help the body to drain fats and toxins. You can - with the approval of your doctor of course - practice low-impact sports several times a week such as walking, swimming, yoga or muscle strengthening with exercises suitable for pregnant women.
- Remember to massage your skin daily to activate blood circulation. Our Melting Milk and our Sensory Oil , which also contain an anti-stretch mark active ingredient, are perfect for this!
- Exfoliate the body once or twice a week using the Sublimating Glove . The effectiveness of the treatments will be reinforced because your skin will be ready to absorb the treatments! It can be used perfectly with our Les Bulles Lavantes shower jelly .

- If you work in front of a computer, avoid sitting for too long and keep your legs crossed. Take a break regularly, take a few steps, stretch to activate venous return.
- Leave clothes that are too tight in the closet , as well as high heels, which are bad for blood circulation. If your ankles and feet tend to swell, or simply if you feel discomfort in this area, a feeling of heavy legs, do not hesitate to wear a pair of compression stockings (they can also be reimbursed with a prescription). from your doctor). Very effective in stimulating blood flow to the legs, their draining effect limits the appearance of orange peel skin.
How to get rid of orange peel skin on thighs after childbirth?
Baby is here…the quilting too! Don't panic, you will be able to set up a targeted routine to get rid of cellulite, and say goodbye to orange peel skin. Of course all the advice mentioned above remains relevant!
If you can and if you wish, know that breastfeeding generally works miracles on the bodies of young mothers: they find their pre-pregnancy line more easily and quickly, and eliminate orange peel skin better than others. Breastfeeding actually forces the body to draw on its reserves and stimulates the loss of fat!
After childbirth, it is also time to opt for targeted “anti-cellulite” products , such as Creamy Balm , which will help you remove orange peel skin.

We have specially designed this body care product for young mothers who want to find their best figure!
Because baby is now your priority, and you don't always have time to spend hours in the bathroom, the Creamy Balm acts on 3 levels in a single gesture: it helps you reduce cellulite, it firms your skin, and it reduces the size and improves the appearance of any stretch marks that may have appeared during your pregnancy.
Ingredients-wise, we find a complex of five vegetable oils (Macadamia oil, Rosehip oil, Olive oil, Avocado oil and Sweet Almond oil) to soften, regenerate and deeply hydrate the skin. We have added a flagship active ingredient, Body3Complex , very popular with young mothers! And for good reason: Shea butter, Avocado kernel extract and Bentonite combine for an anti-cellulite action by stimulating the breakdown of lipids and reducing the presence of fat on the thighs and the rest of the body.
For optimal action, we advise you to apply the Creamy Firming Balm twice a day , once in the morning, once in the evening. Take a small amount of product and massage it onto the areas to be treated, such as the thighs, using long circular movements from bottom to top, to activate circulation. Also remember to practice “ palpate-roll ” which consists of kneading the skin and subcutaneous tissues and “rolling” them between the hands, to dislodge the fat cells.
Of course, like all Daylily products, our Creamy Body Balm does not contain any harmful ingredients for mother or baby , and is completely compatible with breastfeeding.
To regain or maintain beautiful skin after the arrival of your baby, consider the Daylily boxes , in which you will find the Creamy Balm alongside our other body and face care products !
