Nia Long is stunning on the November cover of Ebony. Black America’s sweetheart went nude for her double cover and showed off her beautiful, pregnant bod.

Inside the issue, the starlet shares her baby diary and how she and partner Ime Udoka are dealing with what the mag calls, “the pregnancy that was never supposed to happen.”

Long previously revealed to BET.com how she kept stretch marks at bay during her first pregnancy with son Massai. Along with joking that she “prayed to God” and did “rain dances,” Nia said the key to beating the pesky scars is hydration. “One of the things that really helps with skin is high doses of Vitamin C, amino acids and fatty fish oils (Omega 3). They hydrate you from the inside,” she explained.

Long, 40, says her main beauty buy is something we can all afford to snag. “I use a product from a line at Whole Foods, but it’s not expensive. It’s called Aura Glow from Heritage products. They have an almond-scented oil. I use it every day and my son uses it as well. It’s a staple in our house. I put it on in the shower while my body is still wet.”  

Whole Foods, huh? Run, don’t walk.
