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 Image Skincare as of 3/21/2023. 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.
Don’t See Your Product? Read This Before You Ask About It…
Please read the Pregnancy Beauty Guide intro first, where you will learn which products you actually need to worry about (spoiler alert, you don’t need to worry about all makeup or hair products). I will not review products that fall into the “don’t worry about it” categories. If you want to ask about a specific product, I require that you follow these guidelines for asking about pregnancy/nursing safety. You can also learn more about how to use these pregnancy safety lists. I will delete questions that don’t follow the guidelines or are rude.

Hi, I talked with my doctor and some image reps and they all told me the vit c wash is fine for pregnancy. I’m just confused. Also what would you recommend for serious hormonal acne during pregnancy that’s safe?
It’s pretty universally accepted within the medical community to avoid retinoids during pregnancy. Your doctor may not have realized the formulation contains that ingredient? Otherwise, it appears the reps don’t understand what is and is not pregnancy safe.
I have a post on pregnancy acne.

Is the (VITAL C Hydrating Antioxidant A C E Serum: Retinoid) Not safe for nursing because of the retinoid? I just read on the nursing safety post that topical retinoids during nursing are ok so wanted to make sure I understood. Looking for a melasma and acne scar solution while nursing. Thank you!!
It’s the retinoid. Please read the little info about retinoids in the post under the not safe for pregnancy or nursing header.

Hi Christine,
Can you please help me, if octinoxate and octisalate (IMAGE Skincare
PREVENTION+ Daily Ultimate Protection Moisturizer SPF 50) are safe for nursing? I read that octinoxate can be absorbed through the skin, so it’s showing up in plasma, urine and breast milk. Infant exposure through breastfeeding is especially concerning.
Please, let me know your opinion.
Thank you very much in advance!
We have info to suggest that chemical sunscreens should be avoided in pregnancy, but currently we think they’re ok in nursing. If you’re concerned I would just avoid them.

Hi, can you please explain why the max stem cell serum and eye cream are not sage for use during pregnancy?
Every product has the problem ingredients noted next to it. For more information you can read this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy
I see it says stem cells. I am an esthetician and I don’t know why plant based stem cells wouldn’t be safe to use during pregnancy. That’s why I am curious to know bevause I have never heard of them being unsafe.

I’m not certain if the MALUS DOMESTICA FRUIT CELL CULTURE EXTRACT is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.
This has a retinoid. Avoid in pregnancy and nursing

Hi! I see that “VITAL C Hydrating Enzyme Masque” is listed under not safe for pregnancy or nursing because of a Retinoid… and I’m curious where in the ingredients is it listed? Reason I ask – I got a facial and the facialist said this product is pregnancy friendly, so I had her use it, and after looking it up I’m in shock to see it listed, and now I am nervous.
I checked the ingredients and I don’t see a retinoid listed, unless is it disguised as something else? Please let me know. Thank you!

Overall it looks ok, but I’m not certain if the VITIS VINIFERA (GRAPE) FRUIT CELL EXTRACT is a stem cell ingredient. Sometimes stem cells are listed this way, but not always. I would check into what the brand is claiming about stem cells in the product. My concerns are in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.
Hi, I saw that PREVENTION+ daily hydrating moisturiser SPF 30+ is on the list to avoid due to salicylate, but when I checked the producers website it doesn’t appear on the list of the ingredients. Can you please advise if the updated ingredients are ok during pregnancy?

I don’t see it listed now. Note, my list is dated from 2 years ago and the brand website also says “new formula” on this product.
Yes, absolutely! I totally understand and just triple checking here. Preggo brain! Thank you so much.
Hi, thank you so much for compiling this! I recently purchased and have been using the Vital C hydrating anti-aging serum after seeing it listed as pregnancy safe somewhere. Now I see it’s marked as not safe on your list due to licorice root and chemical sunscreens. I tried googling common chemical sunscreen names and don’t see any of them in this list of ingredients. I don’t see licorice root either. Is it possible they changed the formula since you did this or is it hiding as one of the other crazy words I don’t recognize? Thanks!
