Pregnancy safe skincare 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 every pregnancy safe skincare product from Avene as of 5/22/2021. 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.
How to Request a Product Review
I try to review all of the products that I can when I publish a list. Note, I am in the US and I only have access to US products. Please don’t be rude if I skipped your favorite cleanser, when items are out of stock sometimes they aren’t on the brand’s site, or maybe you are in Asia and I am in the US.
I reserve the comments on each post for reviews of product from that brand, this makes it easier for others to find products later. Please only ask about Avene on this post, I will delete other product questions. You can find other brands here. If your brand is not included, please ask on the brand list post.
**Note: Avene has recently been changing the name of some of their products, judging from the write ups on their site and DermStore. I’ve screened these products on the Avene site, and they are all called by their name as listed on the Avene site.

Hello, is avene clearance soin teinte safe for pregnancy?
Do you have an ingredient list?
why I need an ingredient list to comment on product safety
Hi Dr. – can you please note as to why the Avene Micellar Lotion/Water is not safe for pregnancy, but OK for nursing? It didn’t have a specific ingredient noted next to them as the other products listed do.
Many thanks!
Gia
That’s just a copy and paste error, I write these lists in HTML because it is faster but it’s an eye boggling mess in the editor, so sometimes I think I’m in the right spot when I paste in the product name, but i’m not! That’s why I paste in the name and then immediately type out what the ingredients are, on occasion I put things in the wrong spot. I missed fixing this one. It’s safe!
OK great – thanks so much for clarifying! Your posts have been extremely helpful throughout my pregnancy <3

Hi Doctor,
Im extremely grateful for the work you are doing..Can you please tell me if i can use the following product during 3 rd trimester of my pregnancy and during nursing since i live in a extreme humid place and my pores are getting bigger and bigger everyday because of too much of oiliness on my face..
Its a korean product and says its safe to use during pregnancy and nursing but i want to take ur advice
The product is Slurp Niacid
Ingredients list is:
pharmacuetical transDermal{Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, Butylene Glycol, Niacinamide, Glycerin, 1,2-Hexanediol, Illicium Verum (Anise) Fruit Extract, Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, Tranexamic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Snail Secretion Filtrate, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Prunus Mume Fruit Extract, Ethylhexylglycerin, Brassica Oleracea Capitata Leaf Extract, Hamamelis Virginiana Extract, Sodium Guaiazulene Sulfonate}distillated
Link : https://slurp.co.kr/products/niacid
I wouldn’t use this while pregnant due to the snail secretion (it’s mostly just an unknown, no data that it is bad), but the willow bark is considered a salicylate and needs to be avoided during pregnancy. It is ok for nursing.
I would look into a Clarisonic actually. It can be used with your regular face wash, but the sonic cleaning action has been shown to help clear pores more than other cleaning actions, and it gently exfoliates the skin.
Thabk you so much
The PhysioLift Eyes Wrinkles contains Retinaldehyde but is currently under your “Pregnancy Safe” list. Could they have reformulated since you last reviewed it? I included the full ingredients below for easy reference.
WATER, ALUMINUM STARCH OCTENYLSUCCINATE, GLYCERIN, ISODECYL NEOPENTANOATE, PPG-15 STEARYL ETHER, CETYL ALCOHOL, CETEARYL ALCOHOL, GLYCERYL STEARATE, PEG-100 STEARATE, CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, DIMETHICONE, 1,2-HEXANEDIOL, ASCOPHYLLUM NODOSUM EXTRACT, BHT, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, CETEARETH-33, DISODIUM EDTA, RETINAL, SODIUM DEXTRAN SULFATE, SODIUM HYALURONATE, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE, XANTHAN GUM
Thank you!!
I’m glad you caught that! I do go through line by line, but I’m always worried I’m going to catch some ingredients (in case my eyes go all buggy) and I search for a set number of terms to catch these things, and “ret” (to catch the beginning of different retinoid chemicals) is one of them. I didn’t catch this one, I just moved it down to the correct category. I could have been reformulated, or sometimes the ingredient lists online just aren’t correct 🙁 That’s why I recommend checking your products too. Thank you for your help!

Hi Dr Christine,
I’m desperately looking for a tinted moisturiser with SPF and I’m very hopeful about this one (fingers crossed).
I can see thanks to hard work that the Avène Mineral Fluid SPF50 is ok for pregnancy, but what about its tinted version which has different ingredients?

Yes glad I took the time to compare just in case.
Thank you Doctor! 🙂
Hello Cristine, would you be so kind to review the Hydrance Light Spf 30 sunscreen emulsion? Does it contain chemical sunscreen? Is it safe for pregnancy?
Thank you!

Ok for nursing but not pregnancy due to chemical sunscreens
Dear Christine,
What do you think about METHYLENE BIS-BENZOTRIAZOLYL TETRAMETHYLBUTYLPHENOL [NANO], is it safe to use during pregnancy or for SPF for 3 year old children? Most all of Avene SPF products contain this ingredient. C12-15 ALKYL BENZOATE is also very used in their products.
Thank you very much!!
C12-15 ALKYL BENZOATE is a conditioning agent that helps hold everything together that is fine for a kid and during pregnancy.
METHYLENE BIS-BENZOTRIAZOLYL TETRAMETHYLBUTYLPHENOL is Tinosorb M, a chemical sunscreen. That should be avoided during pregnancy but it is fine for a 3 yo. It should be avoided for kids under 12 months.
Dear Doctor,
Your website is my number 1 website! I would like to thank you sincerely…
May I ask you to review if I may use this cleansing bar during pregnancy?

Oh my god.😍
Cleanacne expert does not have AHA orBHA? I have heard it before and I think I read it somewhere
Those ingredients look fine to me!
Maybe in the previous products I have now in Asia there is aha/bha?and they have been removed over time?
Brands frequently have different formulations for different stores, countries, and they reformulate without announcing they did so.
So on this account, can I use this product during pregnancy to control pimples, oil and blemishes on my face? Because it is very effective in these cases
Yes, it’s ok for pregnancy and nursing
Hi!
Could you please review the following product “Avene Cleanance Micellar Water – for oily, blemish-prone skin”.
Here is the list of the ingredients:
AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER (AVENE AQUA). BUTYLENE GLYCOL.PENTYLENE GLYCOL.PEG-6 CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC. GLYCERIDES. PEG-40 HYDROGENATED. CASTOR OIL.CETRIMONIUM BROMIDE.CITRIC ACID.FRAGRANCE (PARFUM).ISOPROPYL.ALCOHOL.PEG-6 SILYBUM MARIANUM FRUIT EXTRACT
I have noticed that the “normal” micellar water from Avene is already on your list and has been classified as pregnancy safe products. However, the “Cleanance” micellar water has different ingredients so I’m not sure if it’s safe as well.
Thank you for your help!
I didn’t know there was another variation. 🙂 This one is also fine for pregnancy and nursing.
Hi Dr. could you please review if the below product is pregnancy safe? Thank you.

This has glycolic acid, so ok for nursing but not pregnancy

Is it safe for pregnancy?
I don’t consider this pregnancy safe due to the chemical sunscreens. It’s fine for nursing.
Discussion here: Why does X Brand say this product is safe but you don’t think it is safe? (or Vice Versa)
I guess they think that the product provides high protection and is therefore suitable for pregnant women and children. But they do not take into product whether the ingredients are safe. Many women will read this on their website and buy the product without further consideration.
Yes, there are a lot of products out there like that.
