Pregnancy Safe Products from Mustela

Pregnancy Safe Products from Mustela

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 Mustela as of 3/16/2024. 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.

Yes, I still answer questions about product safety! You must follow these guidelines. Any rude comments or those not following the guidelines will be removed. This means full product name, ingredient list, and each product must either be on the proper brand page or the brand list page. I won't accept comments in the wrong spot.

You can check the pregnancy beauty FAQ for many answers. Also check out which makeup and hair products I think you should worry about. Additional info about: perfume, nail polish and sunless tanners

    Do you have a post on safe sunscreen for babies or shall we take it that the pregnancy safe ones are also safe enough?

      Christine said:

      Anything safe for pregnancy is ok for the babies. Mostly you just need to use a mineral based sunscreen over 6 months of age.
