The Mama Mio team

Here at Mama Mio we know pregnancy isn’t easy, that’s why

we teamed up with skincare and pregnancy expert Melissa to

offer a little helping hand through what is arguably the most

challenging, mind-boggling, exciting, thrilling and incredibly

wonderful 9-month s-t-r-e-t-c-h of your life.

After spending over a decade working in the beauty industry

as a magazine editor and as a member of the marketing

team at Sephora, Melissa Schweiger Kleinman wanted to

translate her love for healthy skincare in a way that could help

mamas-to-be. When Melissa became pregnant with her first child

in 2008, she spent a significant amount of time weeding through

beauty products to find only the safest and healthiest choice for

this meaningful and exciting new stage in her life. She drew upon

her investigative journalism skills and dug deep

through studies and research to identify

what the most effective products with the

lowest toxin profile were for her skin.With

a new life growing inside her belly, only

the safest products would do. Melissa

knew this important information she

uncovered had to be shared with

other like minded expecting mamas.
