Pregnancy safe skincare 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. The list has gotten so large that I’ve decided to start listing brands in their own individual posts.
Here you’ll find every pregnancy safe skincare product from Renée Rouleau as of 4/6/2019. If it is not safe, I’ll tell you why. All of the products meet my pregnancy safe criteria. If they release a new product that is not listed here, please comment below and I will add it. Note I will link to every product directly to avoid confusion. You’ll know exactly which product I mean.
Please note, it can take up to an hour to review the ingredient lists of each product. I review with my own list of pregnancy safe criteria. I obtain my ingredient lists from the brands and major retailers (typically Nordstrom and Sephora), and I review the US versions. Please do not ask me to re-review the same products over and over, I do not have the time to do so, and many people have been rude about this. For more brands, please head over to the list of pregnancy safe products.

May 28, 2019 at 12:34 pmSo it actually isn’t listed in the ingredients list, just on the “key ingredients”, which in my experience isn’t always correct. I’ll reach out to them and see!

May 28, 2019 at 1:38 pmI emailed and already heard back! This was a fantastic response, I’m very pleased with Renée Rouleau! This was Polina, their lead customer service rep, she’s also an esthetician. Great to know that if you email them you’ll get great advice from an esthetician as well 🙂
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! I did some investigating and spoke with our lab in regards to the ingredients in our Total Eye Repair Creme and it looks like it was listed on our product page by mistake. I’m currently working with our web team to correct this!
We pride ourselves on providing others with transparent information about what is in our skincare products, so we apologize for any confusion that this may have caused. Please let us know if you have any further questions. As always, we are here to help!
So, it looks like the licorice root was mistakenly listed under the key ingredients. It can stay under the “pregnancy safe” category!
