Pregnancy Safe Skincare from L’Occitane

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 L’Occitane as of 4/13/2025. 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.

Yes, I still answer questions about product safety! You must follow these guidelines. Any rude comments or those not following the guidelines will be removed. This means full product name, ingredient list, and each product must either be on the proper brand page or the brand list page. I won't accept comments in the wrong spot.

You can check the pregnancy beauty FAQ for many answers. Also check out which makeup and hair products I think you should worry about. Additional info about: perfume, nail polish and sunless tanners

        Good day Doctor.
        
        I have already saw that the Volume & Strength scalp serum mentioned in the above comment is already listed as safe for pregnancy and nursing. However, i also noticed that there is rosemary oil in this, and i have read that rosemary oil may cause preterm contractions. Is this still considered as safe? Thanks!

        You can pretty much find info out there about avoiding everything possible, much of which isn’t based on much. It’s not considered an ingredient to avoid by the medical community. My list of ingredients that I screen out is very conservative and it’s here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

HELIANTHUS ANNUUS (SUNFLOWER) SEED OIL – PEG-40 SORBITAN PEROLEATE – ISOPROPYL ISOSTEARATE – CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE – COCO-CAPRYLATE/CAPRATE – PARFUM/FRAGRANCE – HELICHRYSUM ITALICUM EXTRACT – CALENDULA OFFICINALIS FLOWER EXTRACT – PRUNUS ARMENIACA (APRICOT) KERNEL OIL – HIPPOPHAE RHAMNOIDES FRUIT OIL – TOCOPHEROL.

Hello,

I just wanted to point out that some products listed under the “safe list” actually contain ingredients that are not safe to be used during pregnancy. For example, the L’Occitane Shea Light Comforting Cream, Shea Butter Ultra Comforting Cream, and several other facial moisturizers, contact benzyl benzoate. It should be avoided during pregnancy or nursing.

Hello 🙂
I see that L’Occitane Almond range is considered safe to use during pregnancy but I thought using Almond oil could bring on early labour?
Many thanks.

  That’s a new one to me. Honestly there’s info out there that every ingredient causes early labor (often a google search brings up highly inaccurate info). It’s considered fine, especially topically. Things to worry about here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

Hi doctor, thank you for all the information you provided in your website. It’s really helpful 😊

1. Could you please advise if the L’Occitane Intensive Repair Shampoo is safe for pregnancy?

INGREDIENTS: AQUA/WATER – SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE – DECYL GLUCOSIDE – PEG-7 GLYCERYL COCOATE – COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE – CITRUS AURANTIUM DULCIS (ORANGE) OIL – ANGELICA ARCHANGELICA ROOT OIL – ANGELICA ARCHANGELICA SEED OIL – AVENA STRIGOSA SEED EXTRACT – LAVANDULA HYBRIDA OIL – SODIUM CHLORIDE – HELIANTHUS ANNUUS (SUNFLOWER) SEED OIL – LAVANDULA ANGUSTIFOLIA (LAVENDER) OIL – CANANGA ODORATA FLOWER OIL – PELARGONIUM GRAVEOLENS LEAF OIL – CITRUS AURANTIUM DULCIS (ORANGE) PEEL OIL – HYDROGENATED VEGETABLE (PALM) GLYCERIDES CITRATE – GLYCERIN – PANTHENOL – COCO-GLUCOSIDE – GLYCERYL OLEATE – POLYQUATERNIUM-7 – HYDROXYPROPYL GUAR HYDROXYPROPYLTRIMONIUM CHLORIDE – CITRIC ACID – LECITHIN – TOCOPHEROL – ASCORBYL PALMITATE – SODIUM BENZOATE – POTASSIUM SORBATE – PARFUM/FRAGRANCE – LIMONENE – LINALOOL.

2. The L’Occitane Gentle & Balance Shampoo is Sulfate free but it has Benzyl Salicylate in the composition. I was advised that the quantity of Salicylate is minimal in hair products so I shouldn’t worry about it. Could you please advise if this is true and if it’s more beneficial to use this shampoo provided it is sulfate free.

Thank you!

  #1 Safe for pregnancy and nursing
  #2 My info on hair products is here: Hair products to worry about
  Basically, lots of OBs say not to worry about hair products at all, I think mostly to make their lives easier. But shampoo isn’t really used any differently than a face cleanser (which we screen the ingredients of) and it’s actually more likely to leave some ingredients behind on the hair/scalp to get the advertised benefits. So I would avoid the shampoo with salicylate, but some physicians would say that’s overly conservative. It’s kind of up to you. Re: more beneficial to use that shampoo as it’s sulfate free, I doubt it. In theory it’s not a harsh on the hair, but that’s not as much of a concern now as it was about 20 years ago, when shampoos were much harsher. The Intensive Repair shampoo won’t be harsh, I would start using that one personally. 🙂

        I’ve never heard that benzyl benzoate is “prohibited” under age 2 (Note, I’m double board certified in pediatrics…) You can pretty much find info out there about avoiding everything possible, much of which isn’t based on much. It’s not considered an ingredient to avoid by the medical community for kids or pregnancy. My list of ingredients that I screen out is very conservative and it’s here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

Hello,

I am in the 5th month of my pregnancy and for the last month I have been using the Almond Milk Concentrate body cream from LÒccitane. You say it is safe in moderation. May I ask what do you mean by that? I am practically using it constantly (2-4x daily), and it has helped me immensely. But right now I am feeling really scared, after I have seen on the website of LÒccitane that they do not recommend it in pregnancy.
What should I do? Is it possible that I have already done something irreversible just by using it?
Also it says in the list that it contains coumarin, and that is definitely teratogenic. Can that be absorbed from the skin?

Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

Ingredient list:
AQUA/WATER – COCO-CAPRYLATE/CAPRATE – CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE – GLYCERIN – CETEARYL ALCOHOL – TAPIOCA STARCH – PRUNUS AMYGDALUS DULCIS (SWEET ALMOND) OIL – PRUNUS AMYGDALUS DULCIS (SWEET ALMOND) PROTEIN – PRUNUS AMYGDALUS DULCIS (SWEET ALMOND) SEED EXTRACT – JUGLANS REGIA (WALNUT) SEED EXTRACT – METHYLPROPANEDIOL – CAPRYLYL GLYCOL – CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE – CARBOMER – SODIUM POLYACRYLATE – POTASSIUM CETYL PHOSPHATE – MANNITOL – CHLORPHENESIN – SODIUM HYDROXIDE – SODIUM CITRATE – METHYLSILANOL MANNURONATE – BIOSACCHARIDE GUM-1 – GLYCERYL CAPRYLATE – BENZOIC ACID – HYDROGENATED LECITHIN – 1,2-HEXANEDIOL – SODIUM METABISULFITE – DISODIUM EDTA – SORBIC ACID – CITRIC ACID – PARFUM/FRAGRANCE – LIMONENE – LINALOOL – COUMARIN

  I have NEVER said anything is “safe in moderation” on my site. I think you may be confusing that comment with someone else. Something is either safe or it is not. If it is safe, you can use it as much as you want.

  To see which exact product please click the links, I can’t verify all of the names always as the brands use slightly different names for the same product at different sellers. I already get 40-60 requests to review products a day, please utilize the list.
