     There isn’t, I’ll have to make one! The products I used personally while pregnant have mostly been discontinued or reformulated.

   First off, your index for pregnancy safe products has been a godsend! Thank you.

   Help me understand why the Chantecaille Rice and Geranium Foaming cleanser is not ok for nursing if licorice root is the only offender. Many products on your nursing list contain that ingredient. Thank you!

     It’s under the wrong spot. When I make these lists I do it in HTML and sometimes things get muddled. I paste in the product name in the right alphabetical spot, immediately type in the ingredients I saw that were an issue (before I forget) and then come back and put the html for the link in. But since the other products are already there, it’s a lot of html and sometimes I think I’m in one section and i’m in the wrong spot. (Another reason I immediately type in the ingredients) Sorry about that!

      Unfortunately stem cells are one of those things that are labelled a huge number of ways so I have to look at brand pages to see what they are claiming the write ups as an active ingredient, and if a copywriter didn’t decide to mention it as a stem cell then it’s soooo hard to know. This page is also 2 years old (and on my list to hopefully update ASAP), and at the time of my review it wasn’t claimed as a stem cell ingredient. It is now so I’ve moved it down.
      My concerns about stem cells are here: ingredients I’m not worried about during pregnancy, Though note I’m likely overly conservative in my concerns. It’s up to you!

      #1 looks ok for nursing and pregnancy EXCEPT I’m not certain if the Nicotiana Sylvestris Leaf 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.
      #2 Safe for pregnancy and nursing

        Thank you so much! I was using the concentrate as an eye cream prior to knowing that I was pregnant. So I just wanted to make sure there was no retinol for my own anxiety ! I stopped using and wont continue now that I am aware if possible stem cells. Thank you 😉

          Yeah, probably. Read the link above, then you can decide. I’m not fully comfortable saying fruit/veggie stem cells are safe for pregnancy, so it’s up to you.

      This is a mascara, which you don’t need to worry about and therefore I do not review. Please refer to this post: Pregnancy Safe Makeup Post.

        Hello,

        I have reviewed the Rice and Geranium facial cleanser. I think the formula might have changed. I don’t see Licorice in it unless ita called something else. Please if you can review the ingredients and let me know if this facial cleanser is pregnancy safe.

        Thanks kindly!
