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 Monat as of 3/10/2024. If it is not safe, I’ll tell you why. All of the products meet my pregnancy safe criteria. You’ll know exactly which product I mean.

Hi Doctor- I do usually put Monat’s Charcoal Gelée Hair Masque up to my scalp; do you think it looks okay? Thank you!
Ingredients:
Aqua/Water/Eau, Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Crambe Abyssinica Seed Oil, Stearamidopropyl PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate, Cetyl Alcohol, Coco-Caprylate, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Hydroxypropyl Bis-Hydroxyethyldimonium Chloride, Cetyl Phosphate, Charcoal Powder, Charcoal Extract, Tocopherol, Cetyl Hydroxyethylcellulose, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride, Fragrance/Parfum, Glycerin, Potassium Hydroxide, Ethylhexylglycerin, Benzyl Alcohol, Limonene
This is fine for pregnancy and nursing
Hi doctor,
What about monat skincare products?
They’re all in the list also. I’ve gone through the entire site.
How about the Be Purified Moisturizer?INGREDIENTS
Aqua/Water/Eau, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Propanediol, Acacia Senegal Gum, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Serenoa Serrulata Fruit Extract, Tocopherol, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Maclura Cochinchinensis Leaf Prenylflavonoids, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Extract, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Extract, Lactic Acid, Niacinamide, Citric Acid, Cocamidopropyl Dimethylamine, Glycerin, Cocamide MIPA, Fragrance/Parfum, PEG-150 Distearate, Glycolic Acid, Xanthan Gum, Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Sodium Chloride, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate

Hi there,
Can you comment on the potential infertility Monat causes because of red clover traces in the products?
It’s actually known for pro-fertility benefits, but not to the point that even orally it’s considered effective by the medical community. Traces in a topical product (in this case for your hair, which can’t absorb anything) isn’t considered something you need to avoid.
Thank you. I have been reading glycolic acid is not of concern during pregnancy, but you recommend not using most of the skincare products because of glycolic acid. Can you explain a little further?
Glycolic acid isn’t universally accepted as safe by the medical community, it is highly absorbed (at least 28% in some studies) when used topically, and as it’s fairly small we think it goes systemic very easily. There’s no data specifically saying it is safe, and due to that many physicians say to avoid it.
Hi doctor,
Is the Monat be purified cold charcoal mask ok?

Hi ,Kushion by monat calm body lotion 150 mg cbd,safe to use in pregnancy?
I usually don’t comment without a full ingredient list, but anything with CBD I would recommend avoiding in pregnancy and nursing.
Hi Doctor-
Would you please review Monat’s new oily skin skincare line for pregnancy and nursing safety? It’s Be Purified and there’s a cleanser, clay mask and moisturizer in the line. Thank you!
I have already reviewed all products in this brand that I hav e access to their ingredient list, please refer to the post about how to request a product review. I need a full ingredient list to review your product, more info here: why I need an ingredient list to comment on product safety
Can you review the new Monday Be Purified Line
I don’t see a line like that on their site.
Would you be able to review the Wellness products?
I don’t review anything you ingest. You should discuss with your physician.
I saw multiple “claims” of miscarriage and bleeding while using Monat hair products claiming to be due to the red clover. I’m really interested in trying their hair care but it made me nervous. May I know your thoughts? I value your opinion and refer to your page for every product I’ve used so far throughout my pregnancy. Thank you!
I don’t find those claims to be very credible. Hair can’t absorb anything, the amount of an ingredient (that hasn’t been strongly linked to issues in the past, it isn’t something we say to avoid) in shampoo is unlikely to have suddenly caused a rash of issues to this extent. Actual miscarriages are much more likely to be related to something like a genetic issue, which again, isn’t linked to shampoo. Unfortunately, I think this is a case of “true true unrelated”, and people are looking for something to blame for an unfortunate event.
If using the shampoo makes you nervous, then I would change to something else. It isn’t worth losing sleep over something like shampoo. But I’m not concerned about these reports.
Would it be bad since it goes into the pores of our scalp and skin? I had the same concern while pregnant and now I am breastfeeding.
Red clover is beneficial as a topical, if so, in what way?
Red clover isn’t proven definitely to be helpful or harmful either way as a topical. If it makes you worried I would just avoid it.

Safe for pregnancy and nursing
Remember that you’re not untangling your hair at the roots, which is where you need to apply a hair product to need to worry about screening it. That’s actually why I didn’t screen this product, you shouldn’t need to worry about it.
I see you have the majority of the skin care products listed as not safe during pregnancy due to containing glycolic acid. I did a separate search of glycolic acid and pregnancy and I found a lot of information that suggests it is actually safe to use during pregnancy. Can you give a little bit more information on that? Thanks!
