In reply to Puca. It's still a powder, so I wouldn't worry about it (please re-read the Pregnancy Safe Makeup Post about why not to worry about powder). Having said that, if you're going to be worried about it, it's just a powder foundation. There are lots of other options.

In reply to Kate Bruce. 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.

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
K
