Pregnancy Safe Products from Kerastase

Pregnancy Safe Products from Kerastase

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 Kerastase as of 5/30/2025. 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.

    Hi! Thank you so much for providing useful information regarding beauty and hair products! I however wanted to ask something: if a serum or a hairspray that contains an unsafe ingredient (e.g. salicylate) but I only use it on my mid hair to ends, why would it be unsafe? I can use gloves for no contact with skin. The spray gets absorbed to hair and there is no contact with face whatsoever.

    Thanks again!

      You don’t need gloves! Just read this:
      Hair products to worry about
      Yes, totally fine. I just screen ALL the hair products now because if I don’t I hear all about it, why someone is using split end serum on their roots and why didn’t I screen it… it’s just easier to include everything.

    Hi. Should i be worried about the fragrance in Nutritive Masquintense Fine Hair Mask? Im a little confused when it comes to fragrance in hair products as most of them have fragrance

      When it’s listed as fragrance you don’t need to worry about it unless you have a sensitivity. Discussion is in here I think: ingredients I’m not worried about during pregnancy

          Lactic acid is fine (it’s already found in the body, I measure levels in patients at work all the time, you just don’t want too much of it), glycolic acid is very well absorbed and should be avoided.
