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. The list has gotten so large that I’ve decided to start listing brands in their own individual posts.
Here you’ll find pregnancy safe products from Allies of Skin as of 8/8/2022. If it is not safe, I’ll tell you why. All of the products meet my pregnancy safe criteria. If they release a new product that is not listed here, please comment below and I will add it. Note I will link to every product directly to avoid confusion. You’ll know exactly which product I mean.

Note, there are several products that have ingredients that would be called out as stem cells in another brand, but Allies of Skin calls them “natural alternatives to cells”, which I find confusing, but I’m calling them out as ? stem cells here. It’s up to you to decide your comfort level.
