Pregnancy Safe Products from Elizabeth Arden

Pregnancy Safe Products from Elizabeth Arden

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 Elizabeth Arden as of 3/8/2022. 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.

Note, Elizabeth Arden doesn’t list full ingredients for some of their products. I’ve listed the ones that I could. They do release partial lists for some of their products that don’t have full lists, so I’ve placed them where they belong in the list and made comments.

      It looks like it’s been totally reformulated, because the list at DermStore is VERY different, or one of the lists is wrong.. I’ll put both lists below. I’m bolding the offending ingredients so you can compare against your product! Hopefully yours is the version at the EA site, as that’s ok for nursing. Neither are safe for pregnancy.

      This is the current list from Elizabeth Arden. It has stem cells, ok for nursing but not pregnancy.

      This is the list from DermStore, which is likely what was previously on the EA website (I review lists based on brand sites whenever possible and I know I did for EA). This list has the retinoid and salicylate.

    Hi doctor

    A more generic question. I am still breastfeeding my second child at 2 years 7 months. He really only feeds at night as a comfort thing and often tells me there is “no more” “go to shops mummy”. Ideally would like to stop in next month or two. I was given some of the Elizabeth Arden ceramide capsules and I assumed they didn’t have retinol as they have a separate retinol capsule but have subsequently found out that is not the case. It contains retinal palmitate. As my son is almost 3 and most of his vitamins contain vitamin A how worried should I be at this stage of late breastfeeding?
    Many thanks

    • 11.14.24
      Christine said:

      Hard to say. We don’t recommend using retinoids during breast feeding, and the retinoid is NOT the same as most of the Vitamin A that you ingest. We can’t do studies to say “X amount is fine at this stage”, so it’s a blanket statement. At this point I’d just wean him and be done probably.
