Pregnancy Safe Products from Origins

Pregnancy Safe Products from Origins

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 Origins as of 7/17/2024. 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.

    I have the Smoothing Souffle Whipped Body Cream and the main ingredient is said to be peppermint. I’ve been reading a lot on essential oil use while pregnant and it warms against peppermint in the first trimester. Do you agree? Is this lotion ok to use early on?

    • 4.16.19
      15mins said:

      Should be ok in a product. We don’t really know how much to use/avoid, we mostly say not to slather yourself up like crazy with any of the EOs. But the exposure in a product like a cream or lotion is much lower.

    Tabitha Coleman said:

    Hi there, I’m a bit worried now as I’ve been using night a mins cream while pregnant and it’s in the not safe list. Why is it unsafe and should I be worried that I’ve been using it?

    • 5.12.19
      15mins said:

      Please refer to the lists below to the safe list to see which ingredient was on my list of ingredients to avoid during pregnancy, most of the night a mins are unsafe due to salicylic acid, but I can’t tell you which ingredient for sure as there are a lot of those products. I have info on what to do if you are using an unsafe product in my pregnancy FAQ, but in general the worst ingredient to be using is a retinoid, the others haven’t been proven and theoretically could cause issues, but many women use products throughout their pregnancies without issues. I would just change to a different product and not worry about it.

    Hi Doctor,

    Thanks so much for this. One quick question please.. why is  A PERFECT WORLD™ ANTIOXIDANT CLEANSER WITH WHITE TEA listed in the not for pregnancy list? I checked the origins site and cannot find the ‘licorice root’ on it? I am currently using it hence asking. Thank you! 🙂

    Hi Doc, good day and hello from Philippine. I’m a first time mom (single mom)…not sure if I’m on my 4th or 5th week as I don’t visit OB yet (just positive PT ) but I’m sure I’m pregnant 😍…I love your ebook and site ❤️❤️❤️
    Very helpful. Will surely recommend with my family and friends. I’m using Origins product some you’ve mentioned (willowherb serum and mattefying mask) I will stop for now but facial cleanser check and balances (I was relieved that it’s ok to use ☺️)
    I’m also using This Korean product called PHYTO NIACIN WHITENING ESSENCE, KEY INGREDIENTS
    Niacinamide – Brightens and clarifies the skin

    Bamboo leaf extract – Hydrating and has anti-aging properties

    Hyaluronic acid – Humectant that attracts moisture to the skin to keep it hydratedE,

    This are full ingredients list which is very confusing for me:

    Bambusa Vulgaris Extract, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Niacinamide, 1,2-Hexanediol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Nelumbo Nucifera Flower Extract, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Morus Alba Bark Extract, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Rosa Canina Fruit Extract, Leontopodium Alpinum Extract, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Arnica Montana Flower Extract, Achillea Millefolium Extract, Gentiana Lutea Root Extract, Artemisia Absinthium Extract, Alcohol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Disodium EDTA, Potassium Hydroxide

    At the moment, I stop using the phyto niacin as I’m not sure of it.. I will wait for your go signal Doc
    Thank you and more power.
    God bless you always.

      I screened these products on the Origins site (very recently if you look at the date within the post) and not only is there no Salicylic Acid in this list or the one on the Origins site, but there’s no mention of Salicylic Acid on their site. They’re likely calling it out as being in an extract or something, but that’s not something to be worried about with pregnancy safety unless it is willow bark.

    – Aura Serum Essence by A For Apocathecary
    Ingredients: Rosa Damascena Flower Water, Lavandula Angustifolia Fower Water, Hamamelis Virginiana Leaf Extract, Glycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Aqua, Avena Sativa Kernel Extract, Lactobacillus Ferment, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Levulinate, Sodium Anisate, Propanediol (plant based), Tremella Fuciformis Extract, Gluconolactone, Calcium gluconate, Aloe Barbadensis Extract, Sodium Phytate, Alcohol

    2) I noticed that many moisturizers tend to have alcohol or denat alcohol as one of their ingredients. Is this generally safe for pregnancy? I’m thinking about the point about ingredients passing through the placenta to the fetus.

    Thank you so much.

      1- Ok for nursing but not pregnancy due to gluconolactone
      2- it’s fine because it doesn’t really absorb, it mostly evaporates. Also a different kind of alcohol than ethanol.

        Dear Dr, thank you so much for your response. Can I check why Gluconolactone is not safe for pregnancy?
