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 Native as of 3/4/2022. 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.
Reminder: I do NOT review dental products. Even if you ask. I don’t have training in how the teeth absorb things, we got about 4 hours of teeth total when I was in medical school. The ingredients are also very different.

I’m a doctor, a mommy and a bit of a beauty addict. If you let me, I can take 2 hours to get ready in the morning. Really. I'm on a quest for faster beauty that works!
Hello – is the Native Brightening Vitamin C and Niacinamide Facial Serum pregnancy and nursing safe? Thank you
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Panthenol, 3-O-Ethyl Asorbic Acid, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Xanthan Gum, Benzyl Alcohol
Safe for pregnancy and nursing
I bought the volumizing shampoo,, then came across this post. I saw under safe for pregnancy and nursing the thick 2 in 1 shampoo conditioner. I went to target to buy it but saw it had the same ingredient that was deemed unsafe with the other, Salicylate. Can you clarify why the thickening shampoo/conditioner is safe even though it has the same ingredient as said unsafe in the volumizing shampoo?
It may have been reformulated or they may have a different formula in the store? Unfortunately I’m at the mercy of the online ingredient list (which didn’t have it), which is why I say to always check your own label. I didn’t lie on purpose…
Interesting. So I’m 6wk pregnant and at four weeks looked up all my products besides native which I’ve been using 🙁 something told me to check but from what I could see on label I didn’t see any bad ingredients. How can you tell it has salicylate? Wish I would have checked sooner 🙁
The ingredient will say salicylate as the 2nd word.
