Pregnancy safe beauty products can be super difficult and confusing. I have an entire guide devoted to what products are safe to use while pregnant including information on what ingredients to avoid while pregnant and a huge list of pregnancy safe skincare products.
Here you’ll find pregnancy safe products from Grown Alchemist as of 3/14/2023. If it is not safe, I’ll tell you why. All of the products meet my pregnancy safe criteria. Note I will link to every product directly to avoid confusion. You’ll know exactly which product I mean.

Hello,
I noticed the Detox Eye-Makeup Remover was crossed out on the pregnancy safe list above. Is this no longer considered safe?
Nothing is crossed out in the list. Links are underlined. I think your browser is having issues.
Hi Doctor!
For the Age Repair Eye Cream (reviewed as safe for pregnancy and nursing), I noticed that the product description on the brand’s page says “ vitamins a, e and d from wheatgerm and phyto-amino acid peptides reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eye and visibly reduce puffiness around the eye area.” So although the ingredient list does not explicitly list vitamin A/retinoids (included below for completeness), the product description seems to say it’s part of one of the ingredients. Is it still fine to use the product during pregnancy? Thank you!

Yes, it’s fine when it’s inside of the extracts and such and not added separately. There’s some discussion in here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy
