Pregnancy Safe Products from Rodan & Fields

pregnancy safe products from rodan and fields

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. The list has gotten so large that I’ve decided to start listing brands in their own individual posts.

Here you’ll find pregnancy safe products from Rodan & Fields as of 3/16/2021. 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 refer to my post on pregnancy safe makeup, where I explain why you don’t need to worry about your mascara, powders, eyeliners, brow products, etc. I do not review these products.

A note about this list in particular:
• I am not affiliated with Rodan and Fields. I do not sell their products. I do not have insider info. When they tell sales reps they are going to update a formula, I don’t get notice, and I certainly do not get a full ingredient list.
• Yes, they recently updated a bunch of formulas. As soon as this was announced (and before any changes were made to their website), I had about 10 people commenting on this post, wanting to know if products were safe. Ingredients weren’t out there. I had no info. Oh, and by the way, most of these people were beyond rude and calling me horrible names. This has NEVER happened with any other brand. (I didn’t publish any of them, so don’t go giving side eye to anyone currently in the comments, they were fine.)
THAT IS WHY COMMENTS ARE TURNED OFF. I will not answer any questions about R+F any longer. I will not answer in other posts, and I will not answer on email. I was very close to just deleting this post, but then I’ll have to explain over and over what happened. I will update this on occasion, but I’m over talking about this brand.

Brow Defining Boost: Prostaglandin Analogue: a word about this product. It’s basically a mascara. If you’re applying it like a mascara to your brows it really is probably fine in pregnancy, but a lot of people told me they’re smearing it all over their brow area. In which case I wouldn’t use it while pregnant.

    I see that you listed several products that are NOT safe due to Glycolic Acid content. Is this due to the acid itself or the amount? I was under the impression that Glycolic and Lactic Acid were safe in pregnancy. Thanks!
