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 Benefit as of 11/26/2022. 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.

I’m a doctor, a mommy and a bit of a beauty addict. If you let me, I can take 2 hours to get ready in the morning. Really. I'm on a quest for faster beauty that works!
Hello dear, thank you for everything thing you are posting in here! You are amazing!
I just wanted to ask you about Filorga brand, I am currently using their day cream and eye cream “Time-Filler” and I am confused whether they are good during pregnancy or not. I am not pregnant yet, but I’m trying to be.
Here is the ingredients list:
Aqua, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Isododecane, Squalane, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract, Dimethicone, Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil, Dimethicone/Bis-Isobutyl PPG-20 Crosspolymer, Sucrose Palmitate, Parfum (Fragrance), Stearalkonium Hectorite, Glyceryl Linoleate, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Tocopheryl Acetate, Chlorphenesin, Propylene Glycol, Polysorbate 60, Sorbitan Isostearate, Xanthan Gum,Silica, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil, Biosaccharide Gum-1, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin, Caprylyl Glycol, Carbomer, Glyceryl Caprylate, Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate, Citric Acid, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Anisate, Sodium Levulinate, Crithmum Maritimum Extract,Tocopherol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, Sodium Chloride, Glucose, Potassium Chloride, Calcium Chloride, Magnesium Sulfate, Glutamine, Sodium Phosphate, Sodium Acetate, Ascorbic Acid, Lysine HCL, Arginine, Alanine, Histidine, Valine, Leucine, Threonine, Isoleucine, Tryptophan, Phenylalanine, Tyrosine, Glycine, Polysorbate 80, Serine, Deoxyadenosine, Cystine, Glutathione, Cyanocobalamin, Deoxycytidine, Deoxyguanosine, Deoxythymidine, Asparagine, Aspartic Acid, Ornithine, Glutamic Acid, Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, Proline, Aminobutyric Acid, Methionine, Taurine, Hydroxyproline, Glucosamine, Coenzyme A, Glucuronolactone, Sodium Glucuronate, Thiamine Diphosphate, Disodium Flavine Adenine Dinucleotide, Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate, Sodium Uridine Triphosphate, Retinyl Acetate, Inositol, Methyl Deoxycytidine, Niacin, Niacinamide, Pyridoxal, Pyridoxine, Biotin, Calcium Pantothenate, Folic Acid, Riboflavin, Tocopherol Phosphate.
This has a retinoid and a variant of gluconolactone (a poly hydroxyacid). So it isn’t safe during pregnancy and if you’re on the conservative side it’s one to avoid during nursing as well.
Hi I was wondering if this product was Safe during pregnancy:

But this list is fine for pregnancy and nursing.
Hi! Thank you for putting these guidelines together.
They’ve been incredibly helpful and really helped med navigate a sometimes difficult world with pregnancy – safe make up. I read your notes about products for brows in general, but I’d love to hear your perspective on the following product:
Product: Divaderme Brow Extender II Chocolate Brown
Ingredients: Cellulose, Panthenol, Kaolinite, Tocopherol, Lecithin, Panax Quinquefolius Extract, Boswellia Serrata, Aloe Barbadensis, Urtica Dioica Extract, Ocimum Basilicum Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis Extract.
I was a little bit in doubt given it also claims to help eyebrows (which may indicate that it connects with the brow/skin).
Thank you loads in advance!
The ingredients look fine to me

Thank you for all your great work helping women!
The brow gel is the same as a mascara, which you don’t need to worry about as it’s only applied to the hair, which is dead protein and can’t absorb anything. The brow pencil is just like an eye liner, it creates a wax film that doesn’t get absorbed. Both are fine in terms of ingredients, but I haven’t reviewed these products because they’re ones you do not need to worry about. You can shop for products like them without worrying about if they are safe or not. 🙂
