         This has a retinoid. Avoid in pregnancy and in nursing if you’re conservative
         There’s also salicylate to avoid in pregnancy.

       Hi Christine, thanks for your quick reply. It looks to be the ingredients list on the back of the bottle. I missed the word‘Non-Nano’ from uncoated zinc oxide. Some of the sites say in the marketing info that it only has 5 ingredients. Looks like the company have discontinued making it now but it’s still available online.

       Ingredients: *Helianthus Annus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Non-Nano Uncoated Zinc Oxide, *Cera Alba (Beeswax), Tocopherol (Sunflower Vitamin E), *Hippophae Rhamnoides (Seabuckthorn) Fruit Extract. *=Certified Organic

   Hi! I was wondering what your thoughts were on Fitglow’s lash serum.

   Ingredients: Purified Water (Aqua), Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, *Equisetum Arvense (Horsetail Plant) Extract, Glycerin, Lupine Amino Acids , Sodium PCA , *Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Cell Extract, Cellulose Gum, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Levulinate. *CERTIFIED ORGANIC INGREDIENTS

   Is the grape fruit cell that extract a concern because of stem cells or are they not stem cells?

   Thank you!

     Christine said:

     I’m not certain if the Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Cell Extract is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.

   Hi Christine,

   Thank you so much for this amazing resource- it’s been so valuable to me during my pregnancy, especially when midwife / doctors appointments have been cut due to covid! I was wondering if you could please tell me whether this shower oil is safe? It claims to be but it includes vitamin A so I was a bit confused. It’s the Sans Ceuticals Activator 7 oil and the ingredients list is:
   INGREDIENTS:
   Squalane [Olive] Fruit Oil
   Olea Europaea [Olive] Fruit Oil
   Simmondsia Chinensis [Jojoba] Seed Oil
   Oenothera Biennis [Evening Primrose] Oil
   Limnanthes Alba [Meadowfoam] Seed Oil

     Some of this discussion might be useful: Why does X Brand say this product is safe but you don’t think it is safe? (or Vice Versa)
     There are other products out there with retinoids that market themselves for pregnancy, even though that’s the #1 ingredient to avoid. I’m not certain why.

     Ok for pregnancy and nursing: 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11

     Ok for nursing but not pregnancy: none

     Avoid in both pregnancy and nursing:
     2: retinoid, salicylate
     5: retinoid
     7: retinoid

     10: I can’t answer this one as it says vitamin A without saying which chemical name, so I don’t know if that’s a retinoid or not.

     Thank you so much ☺️ I so appreciate it. This is the best website ever, you’re so helpful and informative! Yes, the Vitamin A was listed as a main ingredient in no 10. It reads: “Vitamin A is the most frequent form is retinol palmitate. By stimulating epidermal revitalisation, this substance prevents excessive keratinisation. It is known to improve the horny layer’s structure and restore skin elasticity. By regulating melanogenesis, it also lightens skin discolorations”
     I am assuming this is a no go, I’m sorry I should have added this to the above post!
     Thanks so much again, so helpful!!!! ☺️

       I agree, I’d consider it a no go then. Usually they list the actual chemical. The main reason I said I’m not sure with that Vitamin A, rather than just saying no, was sometimes it’s beta-carotene instead, which is actually fine.

      Avoid in pregnancy and in nursing if you’re conservative. I treat Bakuchiol as a retinoid, and there are also a salicylate and tartaric acid to avoid in pregnancy.

        Hi Christine,
        It will be great to screen the Pipette and add it to the safe brands list. The brand is created by the same parent company, Amyris, that created the Biossance products. I have been going through their products as well, and looks like some great skin care products for expecting moms.
        Thanks!

    This is so helpful! Thank you so much for making this list. I don’t see it on your list being that it’s a newer brand but wondering if you’ve reviewed products by Naturium. I reached out to the company and looked at the ingredients myself but might be another good brand to add!

      I’m not certain if the Panax Ginseng Callus Culture Extract is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.

    Hi Christine,

    Your website is a delight to read and it’s prompted me to reach out to find a pregnancy-safe non-tinted physical sunscreen (plus a serum query).

    Are you able to have a look and see if the ULTRASUN

    If not, are any Ultrasun sunscreen pregnancy safe?

    Also, is the VOTARY super seed serum pregnancy safe?

      #1 and 2 I don’t think you have the right ingredients. They’re both labelled as Hemp (which I think should be avoided in pregnancy and nursing), but neither list hemp in the ingredients. When I look at the Tres site, the shampoo has the wrong ingredients (I didn’t check the conditioner). So, I don’t think those are the correct lists, but I recommend avoiding hemp anyways. Given the mix up, if the other ingredient lists are from the same place I would definitely check bottles before you start using.

      Ok for nursing but not pregnancy:

           There’s no evidence that it isn’t safe, and has long been regarded in the US medical community as safe. I wouldn’t use giant amounts daily (because that can cause issues even when not pregnant), but this is the first I’ve heard of it not being safe in pregnancy.

       Everything I worry about is here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy
       Sage is fine topically during pregnancy. You need to ingest extremely large amounts to have any effects (similar to rosemary) and physicians don’t advise avoiding in the diet, and it isn’t accepted by the medical community as something you need to avoid topically.

       Ok for nursing but not pregnancy due to chemical sunscreens
       It’s the Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate
       Discussion here: Why did you say this product has sunscreen when there isn’t an SPF?
       Also I think there are a few ingredients that are suspicious for stem cells (Malus Domestica Fruit Extract, Rosa Damascena Callus Culture Extract), but I would check with the brand about that.

           It’s kind of a similar argument though. It isn’t there for the SPF, it’s there for shelf life. But every time I screen a product that claims to be mineral and then find a chemical sunscreen… it kind of angers me. I feel like it’s false advertising 🙁

     Hi there,
     My husband uses a body wash with retinyl palmitate, a shampoo with salicylic acid and a hair styling product with licorice root in it. I just noticed this as I was cleaning our bathroom drawers the other day. I am pregnant and I do not use his products with these ingredients in them. I use my own pregnancy-safe beauty products. However, my husband and I share the same shower and same bed (among other things we share:) ). Is this going to pose harm to me and my future baby, since I am pregnant? Do I have to review all of his bathroom products? (He has others.)

       I think you’re way over thinking this. Our skin is a barrier, and it actually kind of hard for products to absorb into the skin. Even when applied directly to your own skin, brands need to go and really prove that things are absorbed. The chances of something being on the tile of the shower or sheets of the bed… it’s pretty impossible. I wouldn’t worry about it!

       #1 is fine for both pregnancy and nursing
       #2 and 3 are both fine for nursing but not pregnancy due to DHA and also salicylic acid and licorice root in the VL.
       Personally, I think old self tanner turns me orange, so I’d take that as an excuse to try new. The NKD looks interesting, you just put it on for only 10 minutes and then wash off? Do you like it?

       1: I’m not certain if the Ocimum Basilicum Hairy Root Culture Extract is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.

           Many physicians think it’s unsafe (for everyone, not just while pregnant), and it actually IS absorbed into the body.

     Hi Doc,
     Love this page! It’s been wonderful to use as a guide as I’m new to pregnancy. I tried to find a page on Redken but didn’t see one, possibly because it’s not safe yet I haven’t found any info directly saying that either online. Would love to hear what you think of the Redken frizz dismiss hair instant deflate oil-in-serum. The ingredients are:

     CYCLOPENTASILOXANE, DIMETHICONOL, GLYCINE SOJA OIL / SOYBEAN OIL, PARFUM / FRAGRANCE, ORBIGNYA OLEIFERA SEED OIL, BENZYL SALICYLATE, BENZYL ALCOHOL, LINALOOL, HEXYL CINNAMAL, GERANIOL, AMYL CINNAMAL, COUMARIN, CITRONELLOL, LIMONENE, BENZYL BENZOATE, CITRIC ACID (D226663/1)

     Thank you in advance!

     Hi,
     A generic question about full-spectrum sunscreens. I read the guidance here: https://www.15minutebeauty.com/full-spectrum-sunscreen-broad.html/. It says that “The good news is that you can achieve full spectrum UV coverage if you check the ingredient lists. “. Also saw on this link: https://www.15minutebeauty.com/pregnancy-safe-sunscreens.html, that Zinc Oxide has coverage across UVB, UVA-II and UVA-I, while titanium dioxide has only overage for UVB and UVA-II. Does this mean that for “full-spectrum coverage” (I loved the research behind broad vs full spectrum, and esp the term “full spectrum” itself 🙂 ), the product must contain Zinc Oxide, even if it doesn’t contain Titanium Dioxide? Meaning if a product only has Titanium Dioxide, it does no provide the “full coverage”?

     This might be obvious, but just wanted to doubly confirm.
     Thanks

     I have been using Cover FX Power Play foundation. It’s listed as safe on your site but ThinkDirty indicates that this ingredient is a concern for pregnancy: PERFLUOROALKYLETHYL PHOSPHATE

     What is your opinion? Is that an ingredient you are concerned about? I’m bot sure if think dirty is very broad or accurate.

       I can’t answer as “bark fruit” isn’t really a thing… and Aquatide isn’t a chemical name, it’s something they made up. They aren’t following FDA guidelines with clear and concise labelling.

     Hi Doc, just a quick question about alcohol in beauty products. Is it allowed because it’s contained in very small insignificant amounts? I see a lot of approved products with this ingredient, just says “alcohol” not cetearyl or smth. Thanks a bunch!

           Any heat protector should be fine since you shouldn’t be applying at your roots. Anything you apply beyond the 1 inch or so closest to the scalp you don’t need to worry about.

       I’m not certain if the leontopodium alpinum (edelweiss) meristem cell culture is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.

     Hi Christine! Thank you so much for all your help!

     I was wondering if the Hatch Mama Belly Oil was safe for pregnancy. I would think it’s okay, but I’ve seen some pregnancy product lines that are not safe, so I wanted to double check. 🙂

     Below are the ingredients:
     Isopropyl Myristate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Raphanus Sativus (Radish) Seed Extract, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Oil, Tocopherol, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Fruit Oil, Diethylhexyl Syringylidenemalonate, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

     Hi Christine,
     Firstly, a huge thank you for creating this. When I was pregnant with my first, it was painstaking looking up every single ingredient for absolutely everything and still never being 100% sure because I’m not a doctor. This is truly invaluable so thanks for putting in the hours for us.

     There’s a somewhat new brand called BeautyStat Cosmetics out that has a great looking Vitamin C serum – Universal C Skin Refiner.
     20% L-ASCORBIC ACID (PURE VITAMIN C), PURE EGCG GREEN TEA), TARTARIC ACID, SQUALANE
     Cyclopentasiloxane, L-Ascorbic Acid (Pure Vitamin C), Isocetyl Stearate, Squalane, Polysilicone-11, Petrolatum, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (Pure Egcg Green Tea), Tartaric Acid.

     Would love your opinion on whether this is ok for pregnancy and nursing. I didn’t see petrolatum listed as a no-no ingredient in your list but wasn’t sure.

     If this isn’t safe, do you have a favorite Vitamin C serum? Or a go-to serum I can add my True Botanicals Vitamin C booster to?

     Thank you again.

     Hi,
     Thanks so much for all of your information on pregnancy-safe skincare products, I was horrified when I realised some of the products I’d been using in the first month of my pregnancy. Can you tell me if this product is safe to use please?

     No 7 Laboratories Line Correcting Serum; Aqua (Water), Glycerin, Butylene glycol, Aluminum starch octenylsuccinate, Polyacrylate crosspolymer-6, Sorbitan laurate, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium lactate, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Carbomer, Caprylyl glycol, Acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester, Polysorbate 20, Ethylhexylglycerin, Tetrasodium EDTA, Potassium hydroxide, T-butyl alcohol, Palmitoyl tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7.

     I’ve checked the other face creams and serums I use from the same line, and they all contain retinols so I’ve stopped using those. I wish that products containing ingredients unsafe for use during pregnancy had to write this on their packaging!

     Thanks again!

       All of these are Ok for pregnancy and nursing
       However, none of the badger products look like a full ingredient list. I’ve reviewed their products before and I know they do include things like preservatives usually (otherwise the shelf life would be very short). I would look at your products to ensure you have the full ingredient list, because I suspect these lists aren’t complete.

       #2 and 4 Ok for nursing but not pregnancy due to Salicylate

       You might not need to worry about the salicylates, remember that you only need to worry about products that are applied to your scalp. Which means you don’t need to screen them with me and you can still use them.

     Hi Doctor,

     I am a breastfeeding momma and also trying to conceive another baby. Summer is here and I am concerned about sunscreens. I would like to use one that is not harmful of course. I checked your suggestions but none of them are available in the country I live in (Sweden) 🙁 Do you happen to have other recommendations in terms of sunscreen that can be found internationally? What are your views on La Roche-Posay Anthelios products? I recently came across this one but unsure if it is ok to use. Many thanks in advance for your help.

     Hi,
     I was wondering your thoughts on eyelash extensions during pregnancy. My lash therapist has two types she can use. Either Nikkilash or Stacy lash and the ingredients are below. The glue is applied on the lashes not skin but still interested to know your thoughts:
     Nikki: Polyamide Resin 1%, Ethyl Cyanoacrylate 85%, Polymethyl Methacrylate 10%, Hydroquinone 0.1%, CI 77266 4%
     Stacy: Ethyl Cyanoacrylate, PMMA, Carbon Black

       Having said that, i wouldn’t use very large amounts on your body, and I would only spray it in very well ventilated areas. I have taken care of several children in my ICU who had breathing issues due to this product.

     Thank you in advance for your time and help.
     Kind regards,
     Stavroula

     I have read that castor oil is a controversial ingredient as it can cause pre-term labor? Is this only in large doses and/or if ingested? Thanks!

       Castor oil needs to actually be ingested in very large amounts to have a hope of causing labor, and even then it pretty much is hit or miss, and really just at term. The little bit in a topical product isn’t something to worry about 🙂

     Our essential oil blend includes: Ho wood, Dwarf Mountain pine, Vetiver, Amyris, Juniper Berry, Frankincense, Opoponax, Peru Balsam, Ylang Ylang and Cedarwood.

       I’m not certain if the Crithmum maritimum callus culture filtrate is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.

       Ok for pregnancy and nursing:
       #3

       Avoid in both pregnancy and nursing:
       #2 retinoid and licorice root

       #1 doesn’t have the correct level of detail to be a full ingredient list and I don’t feel comfortable answering based upon it (eg- the “peptides” should be spelled out in their chemical names), it makes me wonder what they are glossing over or leaving out.
