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 Cetaphil as of 2/12/2022. 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.

Hi is the Cetaphil® PRO Oil Absorbing Moisturizer SPF 30 safe to use during pregnancy?

Thank you!!
Which Cetaphil moisturizer is pregnancy safe? I have combination skin so sometimes my skin is dry (rare) and then it gets very oily throughout the day.
There are 2 lotions and a cream listed under safe above.
Hi! I was wondering if this was safe during pregnancy
I looked under all the Cetaphil products and Did not see this one listed
Cetaphil Redness Relieving daily facial moisturizer with sunscreen BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 20 -neutral tint
Titanium dioxide 10.1%
Zinc oxide 7.8%
Allantoin, benzoyl alcohol, c12-15 alkyl benzoate, caffeine, caprylyl methicone, Cetyl diglyceryl, tris(trimethylsiloxy)- silylethyl dimethicone, chromium oxide greens, dicaprylyl carbonate, dimethicone dipotassium glycyrrhizate, ethylhexyglycerin, glycerin, hydrogenated lecithin, iron oxides, isohexadecane, magnesium sulfate, methylpropanediol, silica, tocopherol, triethoxycaprylylsi-lane, trisiloxane, water
This has licorice root (dipotassium glycyrrhizate) to avoid while pregnant. Should be ok for nursing.
Hello!
The Environmental Working Group (EWG) Cosmetics Database lists Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser and cleansing cloths as having ingredients that are considered “level 7-high hazard” when it comes to developmental and reproductive toxicity (see links below). The ingredients are PROPYLPARABEN and BUTYLPARABEN. Can you please provide your take on this? I’ve been using these products daily for the last 6 months of my pregnancy and am now concerned of the potential effects they could have on my baby’s development. Thank you in advance!

I address parabens in the post on ingredients to avoid during pregnancy. They really are found naturally in things like blueberries, and studies don’t show definitive links to anything. The associations they thought were there were later disproven. All we can prove is that they are absorbed. You can avoid parabens more easily now than a few years ago, but you should know that the preservative that is usually used instead is prone to reactions and doesn’t have safety data.
The EWG isn’t a scientific group, they’re a lobbyist group. The scientific and medical community have major issues with them, they often take studies and come to very different conclusions than even the scientists that actually did the studies themselves. I don’t listen to anything they say truthfully.
Hi please suggest something to apply on pimples during pregnancy they r huge n painful.. And i am scared of all the products lately…

Hi what are cetaphil product that is safe for lactating mother? Thanks
Everything listed under pregnancy safe as well as safe for nursing but not pregnancy.
I’m going to update this list for you this weekend, stay tuned!
Hi I just want to confirm if this is safe to use while pregnant?
CETAPHIL GENTLE SKIN CLEANSER
Ingredients: water, cetyl alcohol, prpphylene glycol, sodium lauryl, sulfate, stearyl alcohol, METHYLPARABEN, PROPYLPARABEN, BUTYLPARABEN.
Thanks
This is fine
Thanks!
I just want to confirm if paraben containing ingredients must be avoided during pregnancy or it is fine to use? Some website claimed that it must be avoided during pregnancy.
They’re considered fine by the medical community. More information in my post on ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.
Hi – thanks so much for your help!
I read that Sodium Lauryl Sulfate should be avoided and just saw it in my Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. I’ve also read in some places that Sodium Laureth Sulfate should be avoided as well (though elsewhere I see that LAURETH is okay but not LAURYL). What do you think of these ingredients?
It’s not something that I’m concerned about at all except that laureth tends to be harsher than lauryl, so sometimes people have difficulty with it if their skin is dry or sensitive.
Hi! I would like to know if this is safe during pregnancy.
Cetaphil Ultra-Gentle Body Wash
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, Betaine, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder, Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Fragrance, Glycol Distearate, Lauryl Lactate, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Citrate, Laureth-4, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Heliotropine, Polyquaternium-10, Sodium Hydroxide

I read another of your articles and thought I saw the last 3 ingredients aren’t safe but just wanted to double check?
They’re all fine actually 🙂

Pregnancy and nursing safe
Awesome, thank you Doctor! By the way, your website is amazing and has been incredibly helpful.
Hello, we have a different ingredients for the cetaphil oil control down wash in Australia. Could you please review the below list.
I’ve looked through lots of your other posts and matched some ingrediants and can see most are ok but can’t find them all. I really hope it’s ok because I’m 22 weeks and been using it all along.
Aqua, Zinc Coceth Sulfate, Glycerin, PEG-75, Amyl Cinnamal, Benzyl Benzoate, Citronellol, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Disodium EDTA, Geraniol, Hydroxycitronellal, Linalool, PEG-7 Glyceral Cocoate, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceril Palmate, Sodium Benzoate, Zinc Gluconate, Parfum
The Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is licorice root. I’d likely switch to something else, sorry!
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Oh no. I’ve been using it for my whole pregnancy 🙁 I looked on your website at cetaphil months ago but didn’t realise until the weekend that Australia had a different ingredient list. All I can do now is hope that it doesn’t impact. Lucky it’s a wash too so it’s off and on. I might move to the more natural sukin range. Would this one be ok?
Thanks again for your helo.
Water (Aqua), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Decyl Glucoside, PEG-150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract (Chamomile), Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (Green Tea), Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract, Glycerin, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil (Rosehip), Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Peel Oil, Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Vanillin, Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Limonene*, Linalool*.

Thanks SO much
Hi, First of all, I want to say thank you so much for taking the TIME and energy todo this.
we never really think about what we put in our skin until we are pregnant.
I have 3 questions for you .
1) Can I use Cetaphil Hydrating eye gel cream with Hyaluronic acid
2) can I use Differin 0.1%
3) what about clindamycin ?
Thank you so muchh and I am huge fannnnnnnnnn of your page
Do you have an ingredient list for the Cetaphil? I can’t find that one.
Differin is a retinoid, so definitely do not use that while pregnant. Many recommend avoiding while nursing as well.
Clindamycin should be fine, but as it is a prescription I would discuss with your doctor, they may want to change things up due to pregnancy.

Hi, thank you so much for your work. It is really really helpful. Could I please request you to review the below ingredients in Cetaphil Acne Prone moisturiser SPF 25 for pregnancy and nursing.
Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Octocrylene, Octyl Salicylate, Allantoin, Aluminium Starch Octenylsuccinate, Caprylyl Glycol, Hydroxypalmitoyl Sphinganine, Diisopropyl Sebacate, Dimethicone, Dimethiconol, Disodium Edetate, Dl-Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate, Glycerol, Glycyrrhetinic Acid, Isopropyl Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Panthenol, Pentylene Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Polyacrylic Acid, Polymethyl Methacrylate, Polysorbate, Potassium Sorbate, Silica, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Sucrose Tristearate, Triethanolamine, Purified Water, Xanthan Gum, Zinc Gluconate
This has chemical sunscreens and a salicylate. Ok for nursing but not pregnancy
Wondering how you think the moisturizing cream is safe when it has dimethicone and propylene glycol, two things that we are told to avoid in pregnancy.
Those actually are not considered ingredients to avoid by the medical community. My list of ingredients that I screen out is very conservative and it’s here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy
Hi Christine,
Is this safe for pregnancy?

Yes. This is the classic moisturizing cream that’s already in the list.
Amazing website and much appreciated! Broke out in a terrible rash on my hands – peeling, itchy, red – from the Cetaphil Daily Advance Ultra Hydrating with Shea Butter and Vitamin E. I wonder what ingredient could be bothering me? I’m usually fine with products.
Thank you!
Cetaphil has much fewer ingredients than other brands, it is one of the reasons that many derms recommend it. Pregnancy is a “sensitizing” time, meaning it’s a time many people start to have reactions to topical ingredients that they are usually fine with. I’d discuss with an allergist.

No, this is Ok for nursing but not pregnancy due to chemical sunscreens and licorice root
I’m confused multiplier sites that have obgyn and other doctors say Cetaphil Pro Oil Removing Foam Wash. In all ingredients I’ve looked up not once is licorice root mentioned
These are the ingredients: Water, Zinc Coceth Sulfate, Glycerin, PEG-75, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Zinc Gluconate, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmate, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Sodium Benzoate, Masking Fragrance, Disodium EDTA
The licorice root is the Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate.
It isn’t super clear cut what to avoid and what not to avoid. I’m on the more conservative side (meaning, I say to avoid more things than some other physicians), not everyone says to avoid licorice root. While this discussion talks about brands, it’s also relevant here: Why does X Brand say this product is safe but you don’t think it is safe? (or Vice Versa)
My reasoning behind including licorice root on my “avoid” list is in this post: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

Thank you! How about this sunscreen with these ingredients?
Deionized Water, Cetyl Alcohol, Cetyl Stearyl Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, Polysorbate 80, Isopropyl Myristate, Stearic Acid, Glyceryl Monostearate, Mineral Oil, Sorbitol, Talc, Titanium Dioxide, Zinc Oxide, Dimethicone, Cucumis Sativa Fruit Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Allantoin, Phenoxyethanol
This looks ok for pregnancy and nursing. Just double check that there isn’t a separate “active ingredient” area. I’m about 99% sure the sunscreen ingredients are the titanium and zinc listed here, but those are usually pulled out (which is how the FDA mandates sunscreens be labelled in the US, so typically brands will do it worldwide. But not always.) I just want to make sure we’re not missing some sunscreens you need to avoid 🙂
