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 makeup from CoverGirl as of 3/23/2020. 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, etc.
How to Request a Product Review
I try to review all of the products that I can when I publish a list. Note, I am in the US and I only have access to US products. Please don’t be rude if I skipped your favorite cleanser, when items are out of stock sometimes they aren’t on the brand’s site, or maybe you are in Asia and I am in the US.
I reserve the comments on each post for reviews of product from that brand, this makes it easier for others to find products later. Please only ask about CoverGirl on this post, I will delete other product questions. You can find other brands here. If your brand is not included, please ask on the brand list post.

It’s basically a mascara product, which is a film former that you don’t need to worry about. It’s fine for pregnancy and nursing, but I think you’re overthinking it.
Hi! I have been using Covergirl Outlast All Day Ultimate Finish 3 in 1 for over half of my pregnancy because I didn’t think to look up if it could be harmful. I’m super nervous now that I caused some sort of harm to my baby. Can you please tell me how terrible this is or could be? Is it not safe to continue using? Any help is really appreciated, thanks in advance!
