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 Unsun as of 4/15/2023. 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’m a doctor, a mommy and a bit of a beauty addict. If you let me, I can take 2 hours to get ready in the morning. Really. I'm on a quest for faster beauty that works!
Hi, thank you so much for putting this guide together. I am going through my first pregnancy, and this has been so helpful. I didn’t see Black Girl Sunscreen listed as one of your brands. May you review and let me know if their moisturizing sunscreen is safe. I also use black-owned hair care products that I did not see listed. Have you considered reviewing Girl+Hair or Jane Carter Solutions? Thank you so much.
