       Hi doctor!
       I was hoping you could provide some clarity on stem cells? I am trying to learn as much as I can about pregnancy safe skincare and your website is amazing!
       I noticed you said this product is safe for pregnancy and nursing however , it lists “pomegranate stem cells” in the active ingredients. A different product I was researching (Glamglow Youthpotion Collagen Boosting Peptide serum) you have listed as not safe due to stem cells but the product advertises “raspberry stem cells”. I was hoping you could fill me in on what the difference is that makes one kind of stem cell safe and not the other? Is there a different kind of stem cell hiding in the glamglow I am not seeing?
       Thank you very much!!!

         So my concerns about stem cells are here:
         skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

         The issue with stem cells is that there isn’t a standard way to list them in an ingredient list, and most brands are inconsistent with the way they list it in an ingredient list. So, I pretty much have to rely on what their copywriters have chosen to highlight in all of their media/website, etc. Stem cells are a big buzzword so they will usually (but not always) call them out. Throw into the mix that some brands are choosing to call extracts stem cells in their marketing (because hey, maybe some stem cells got in there when we squeezed that apple), and the whole thing is a muddle.

         On top of that, my reviews are a moment in time, what things looked like at the brand when I reviewed them. You can always find the date of my most recent review in the post. The brand is free to revise formulas and their website at any time, even as soon as the day of my review. I screen out stem cells. I don’t consider them to be safe currently. I am NOT personally inconsistent with this. However, I am one person with a more than full time job and a family. I don’t have time to review the ingredient lists and websites of every product daily. Things change on the side of the brand and there’s only so much I can do.
