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 Malin+Goetz as of 3/29/2020. 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 Malin+Goetz 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.

Note I’m including products with retinoids here, as those are a bit iffy. It depends on how conservative you want to be while nursing (still absolutely contraindicated while pregnant). Refer to my post on ingredients to avoid while nursing for more discussion.

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!
You say the other Malin + Goetz Bergamot products are ok but the deodorant isn’t listed, is that ok too whilst pregnant? Thank you your page is phenomenal!!
I have already reviewed all products in this brand that I have access to their ingredient list, please refer to the post about how to request a product review. I need a full ingredient list to review your product, more info here: why I need an ingredient list to comment on product safety
Hi there
The products are listed on the product in this link – just thought I’d ask first in case you were in the midst of reviewing 🙂

I can’t view that link, I’m in the US and I get bumped out.
Not a problem, I have copy and pasted for you – had to use my husband’s email as it wasn’t allowing me to post the list:
Water/aqua/eau, propylene glycol, peg-8, sodium stearate, poloxamer 407, saccharomyces ferment, zea mays (corn) starch, oleth-20, triethyl citrate, silica, caprylyl glycol, tetrasodium edta, citrus aurantium bergamia (bergamot) fruit oil, phenoxyethanol, hexylene glycol, citrus aurantifolia (lime) seed oil, cymbopogon schoenanthus oil, eucalyptus globulus leaf oil, juniperus virginiana oil, mentha piperita (peppermint) oil, pinus sylvestris leaf oil, citral, limonene, linalool.
Thanks very much!
Looks ok for both pregnancy and nursing
