Pregnancy may have strengthened Goodwin's fine hair, but it wreaked havoc on her temperamental skin. "I definitely have always had sensitive skin, and when I got pregnant, I noticed that it just became more reactive," she said. "I had to be really careful about some moisturizers and products that I put on my skin. As a makeup artist, I experiment with new skin care pretty regularly, but I had to stop. My skin would get really red or had a lot more sensitivity."
Goodwin turned to her all-natural Northern California girl roots for guidance. "Dr. Hauschka became a staple; I used a lot of Epicuren," she said. "I used aloe vera gel and a lot of special creams."
By her second pregnancy, she'd become "addicted" to facialist Tracie Martyn's organic range. "The Amla Purifying Cleanser ($65) specifically is just incredible," Goodwin raved. "It's so easy and makes my skin so calm; it's got turmeric. Nothing in it is harmful."
The fermentation-focused Australian line Beauty Chef is another go-to; Goodwin used its fermented coconut Beauty Fix Balm ($30) on her eyes, lips, and other dry patches during her pregnancy. Once her son was born, she used it on him as a makeshift salve.
