Babies Moon Salve
Skin Nourishing Calendula Balm
Skin Nourishing Calendula Balm
Babies Moon Salve
Description
Because babies' bods are so sensitive, it is critical that they are exposed to nourishing substances. Calendula, Chamomile, and St. John’s Wort are gentle yet effective plant allies.
*A note on the word "Mama." To our pregnant and birthing people, we see ‘Mama’ as a divine and earthly energy. People of all genders can evoke the Mama, as they create, protect, and nurture. Our world needs Mama channeled by all gender identities. The Mama products aim to honor that energy, rather than defining a particular identity.
2 fl oz
Ritual
Use as a diaper balm, moisturizer, or for minor scrapes and bruises. This salve is designed to be pure, simple, and flexible for many different uses.
Shelf Life
Lasts 6 months. Store in a cool and dry place. Our products are organic and freshly made-to-order skin food. We do not use toxins that make things last forever.

Leaves you soft and moisturized
Review by Kristin A. on 28 Jul 2024 review stating Leaves you soft and moisturized
I love this belly balm, I’ve started buying 4 jars at a time so I don’t run out. I am ~8 months and haven’t had any marks yet, and my belly is so soft thanks to using this 2-3 times a day. Gentle ingredients and lovely smell, to boot.

Absolutely Love!
Review by Brittany B. on 16 Jul 2024 review stating Absolutely Love!
Don't be fooled by the size! A little goes a long way with this magical butter. At 6½ months pregnant, I just finished my first jar after daily post-shower use, and my belly is still as soft and stretchy as ever! It's smells great, doesn't leave you feeling oily like many other belly butters and lotions, and doesn't use single-use plastic. I just popped open my next jar and recommend this to all expectant mamas out there!

Review by Anne M. on 15 Jan 2023 review stating Best belly balm yet
Second trimester bump growth is amazing! This balm glides smoother than the tub of shea butter I have been using. So happy to have found it!

So helpful!
Review by Jessica B. on 5 Dec 2022 review stating So helpful!
I’m 7 months pregnant and this has helped with the itching that comes with a growing belly. I use it twice a day and it keeps my belly moist for growing. I have no stretch marks so far. Highly recommend. I love how clean all the ingredients are.

Magic stuff
Review by Mary H. on 8 Oct 2022 review stating Magic stuff
This is the second pregnancy I’ve used the growing belly balm and I swear by it. I always send a jar to my pregnant friends. It feels extra good on your belly right after you turn off the shower and your belly is still wet! Soaks in well and leaves you feeling moisturized (not oily) all day. And I haven’t gotten any stretch marks so…

Review by Julia R. on 10 Feb 2022 review stating I'm 6 months pregnant and
I'm 6 months pregnant and it my second pregnancy. I first used the growing belly 3 years ago when it was delivered to me through the belly box. I loved it and here I am using it again. Smells good and perfect moisture on my baby belly.

While Fat and the Moon's Growing Belly Balm is made with pregnant bellies in mind, growing bellies are a reality for many non-pregnant bodies too!
Moisturize your midsection by rubbing it on freshly cleansed, slightly damp skin after a shower or use it IN the shower to seal in extra moisture!
Growing Belly Balm can do wonders for dry feet, knees, and elbows too!
Shea butter, cocoa butter, and apricot kernel oil work together to protect and support skin while you flourish. 🌸

The Best Belly Balm Around
Review by Kate F. on 13 Oct 2021 review stating The Best Belly Balm Around
An amazing balm for the growing belly. I use it daily in the shower and it has really helped keep my skin luscious and lubricated as it continues to expand. I love how it smells and how natural it is—a simple formula of very basic ingredients. Truly a treat for your expanding tummy!

Sweet Treat
Review by Brenna M. on 12 Aug 2021 review stating Sweet Treat
I enjoy to chocolate scent and it feels like a way to give my gestating self a little treat. You have to scrape it out and warm it between your hands first before slathering it in your belly, hips and wherever.

Tomorrow I'm sharing a bit about body and breast care for pregnancy & postpartum. These stages hold such significant growth and change in our physical bodies, and creating time to nurture ourselves and our process can feel so restorative 🌻
One of my favorites for the past three years is fatandthemoon's Growing Belly Balm (I still use it 20 months postpartum!). I'd love to hear about practices or products you've loved using through these stages, too 💛

✨ CW- Pregnancy ✨

I’m officially three months into my first pregnancy, and it is nothing like what I expected! I’ve been on an unplanned IG posting break because of some fun, never ending nausea! I can barely shower or walk across my house without being overwhelmed by it, so I have not been up for taking cute outfit pics! I do occasionally have to get dressed for doctor’s appointments though, so here we are 💕 (and I’ve tried everything including prescription meds, so please no recommendations for nausea). My favorite thing about pregnancy so far is smelling like chocolate every night- thank you jessgib_wears for the Fat and the Moon Growing Belly Balm recommendation! ❤️

Chocolate Tummy Cream
Review by Leslie B. on 27 Jan 2021 review stating Chocolate Tummy Cream
The cocoa butter has a strong chocolate scent but it isn't overpowering. The balm, at least during winter, is hard to get out of the jar. Once the balm is on the skin, it absorbs quickly and has a light texture. I am impressed with the simple but powerful formula.
