Pregnancy Safe Makeup and Skincare from Clinique

Pregnancy safe skincare and makeup 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 skincare and makeup products from Clinique as of 3/2/2025. 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.

Reminder that when in doubt, either click some links or look at the front of the actual product. Some of the stores do use other names for products.

Yes, I still answer questions about product safety! You must follow these guidelines. Any rude comments or those not following the guidelines will be removed. This means full product name, ingredient list, and each product must either be on the proper brand page or the brand list page. I won't accept comments in the wrong spot.

You can check the pregnancy beauty FAQ for many answers. Also check out which makeup and hair products I think you should worry about. Additional info about: perfume, nail polish and sunless tanners

  Tocopheryl Acetate isn’t hydroquinone, it’s Vitamin E and definitely ok during pregnancy.
  Also, no need to worry about powders.

Hi, thank you for all your work, it is so helpful to have this resource. In the spirit of being helpful, I just wanted to point out that the Clinique Acne Solutions Oil-Control Cleansing Mask listed as safe here has Salicylic Acid in it. Strangely, it’s not on the ingredients list, but if you look at the photo of the tube on the Clinique website (the link you provided), it says Salicylic Acid Acne Medication at the bottom. I have used it in the past and it had Salicylic Acid on the ingredients list that comes with the product. Thanks again for all your amazing work!

  Arg!! Yes, it isn’t listed in the ingredients on any website, and when I made this list it wasn’t on the front of the packaging either (which was strange because it WAS on the front of the others), so I figured maybe it just wasn’t in this one. I’m just going to move it down. Thanks!

        I’ve never seen salicylic acid mentioned to avoid for nursing, and I don’t know anyone that recommends avoiding it then. I have seen sources that mention that it is ok for pregnancy (which is controversial in the medical community and I am on the side of avoidance), and there are brands out there that say it’s ok in pregnancy under 2%. The main issue we’re avoiding in pregnancy is the salicylate related effects on the ductus arteriosus, which is a moot point after delivery as it *should* close after birth and causes issues if it doesn’t. We just don’t want it to close before birth.
        
        This product looks fine for pregnancy and nursing

Thanks so much. This is so helpful and helps reduce a bit of anxiety. I notice that the Clinique Mineral Suncreen 30 spf body is a no-no. I was shocked. What about the Clinique mineral sunscreen fluid for face? I have been using it everyday since TTC thinking it was a safer option. Thanks so much.

  I actually specifically asked several OBs about it and none of them were concerned. They will have their patients take it orally sometimes (obviously under a physician’s direction) while pregnant and the exposure topically is much smaller than taking it by mouth.

  The first 2 are fine, but the scrub has licorice root so I would avoid while pregnant

To the reviewer,

Sorry, we don’t know your name, and judging by what you have said about rude comments, we can understand why you haven’t posted that information 🙂

Anyway, when my wife asked me to Google the list of ingredients for her makeup, I have to say that my jaw nearly hit the floor as I knew how immensely time consuming this job would have been. However, after a search, I found your website and reviews.

Congratulations on a cracking job!

Too many people take from the internet and give nothing back and we have all become far too reliant on other people doing the work for us, so you should be proud of having put this vast list together just to help people.

We are very grateful, especially me, as it has saved me enormous amounts of work and frustration, so many, many thanks 🙂

Keep up the great work!

  I haven’t had a chance to add all of the makeup to the Clinique list yet. This concealer I would avoid during pregnancy due to the Stearyl Glycyrrhetinate, which is a licorice root ingredient. It’s ok while nursing though. There’s a full list in the pregnancy safe concealer post, hope that helps!.

      Note, most of the comments are from outside of the US, and some (such as this comment from 2019) are outdated versions of products. I put the date of the latest review of a brand in the actual post, which in this case is 8/28/2021.

Hi,

I am currently wary of the repair wear laser focus wrinkle cream…I don’t see any retinoids listed in the ingredients but when I googled it, it said it has retinyl palmalate which contains retinol. I really hope not because I’ve been using it since I found out I was pregnant. Could you help me with this? I don’t see it anywhere in the ingredients.

Thank you

  I don’t see it in any of the Repair Wear creams (note there are 3 possible products, you didn’t specify which so I checked all of them), at least not on the Clinique site. I would trust Clinique’s website over other sites for an accurate list. The best is definitely the list that comes with the product, though that it typically an insert in the box and you likely don’t have that any more.
  
  I address use of products with a “bad” ingredient in my pregnancy skincare FAQ, but note the ingredients of the product likely vary by country, I’ve screened US products, and that’s what’s on the Clinique website. I wonder if the list you saw refers to an international version of the product?
  
  If you’re worried about it, I would change to a different product, but I don’t think retinoids are in the US versions. I hope that helps!

  Is the one in Willow Bark that you need to worry about. Birch has some, but no where near the amount of Willow. We usually consider the ingredients in most extracts and oils to “not count”, but Neem, Licorice Root and Willow are the exceptions. There’s more discussion in my post on ingredients to avoid during pregnancy.

Hi there, I’m a little confused over the Liquid Facial Soap – does it mean the formula is different when it comes in a *tube* packaging, as opposed to the pump bottle? I see that the Liquid Facial Soap is listed as pregnancy safe but not “Liquid Facial Soap Tube”. Thanks!

  Nope, the product should be the same. Pick whichever packaging you prefer. I usually have 1 of each of my favorites if possible, pump for home and tube for travel and on call in the hospital.

  I am also confused by this. The liquid facial soap tube is listed under not safe due to licorice root. But the other liquid facial soaps are safe…I’m curious what Ingredient on the list is licorice root. Because when comparing lists they look similar. Thank you for your help.

    Oh, I see now! So, when I last looked for some reason one had licorice root in it, the other didn’t. Looking at both now, they BOTH have licorice root (Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate in this case). I’ve moved the regular liquid facial soap down to ok only for nursing. Unfortunately, I’m at the mercy of online ingredient lists. Sorry about that!

      Either the Queen Helene Mink Julep mask or the Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Mask. I’m actually currently working on a big listing post for masks that are pregnancy safe that target the pores (likely going up this weekend), but those are the 2 I usually recommend. The Mint Julep is a bit “stronger” in terms of the mud, my skin can’t handle it frequently.

Hello! Your website is such a great tool! Thank you for taking the time to review these things. I was interested to know if you have reviewed Yves Rocher products. I have several different products from them and only recently began to even consider that certain products shouldn’t be used during pregnancy. Thank you again for the products that you have done. If you are looking for another brand line, this could be an interesting one for you as it is extremely common in Europe where I live.

I’d like to start with a thank you for your time and work on this site!

I noticed that men’s products aren’t covered but some ladies do enjoy using products marketed for men. For example, the Clinique for Men Face Scrub (ingredient list: Water\Aqua\Eau , Glyceryl Stearate , Silica , Hexylene Glycol , Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate , Disodium Oleamido Mipa-Sulfosuccinate , Magnesium Aluminum Silicate , Salicylic Acid , Stearamidoethyl Diethylamine , Butylene Glycol , Menthol , Trisodium Sulfosuccinate , Sodium Sulfate , Oleamide Mipa , Caramel , Methylisothiazolinone , Phenoxyethanol).

I do see it has salicylic acid and would like to ask if this would be harmful even if I washed with it only once or twice a week? Is it okay to use products with salicylic acid, licorice root, etc. in the weeks leading up to conceiving?

Thank you!

  I have been using Clinique spf 50 mineral sunscreen for the last 13 weeks as it was a mineral sunscreen I assumed it was ok but now I see it contains Butyloctyl Salicylate under inactive ingredients (so not apparently obvious) and I’m now extremely worried I’ve done harm. How much evidence is there behind the toxicity of salicylate?

Hi there, first of all – love this site, helps a lot! However – I currently have both Foaming Sonic Facial Soap and Liquid Facial Soap and I don’t see licorice root in any of them. Is there another name for it or maybe they just changed the ingredients..?

This is Sonic Soap: Water\Aqua\Eau, Myristic Acid, Glycerin, Behenic Acid, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate, Potassium Hydroxide, Palmitic Acid, Lauric Acid, Stearic Acid, Caffeine, Butylene Glycol, Sucrose, Sodium Pca, Sodium Hyaluronate, Trehalose, Peg-3 Distearate, Urea, Polyquaternium-51, Trisodium Edta, Disodium Edta, Phenoxyethanol <ILN41295

And Liquid Soap:
Water\Aqua\Eau, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lauramidopropyl Betaine, Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Cocoyl Sarcosinate, Tea-Cocoyl Glutamate, Butylene Glycol, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Peg-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate, Sucrose, Hexylene Glycol, Polyquaternium-7, Laureth-2, Caprylyl Glycol, Sodium Sulfate, Edta, Disodium Edta, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone, Phenoxyethanol

Is there licorice root under another name, or any other ingredient that’s iffy?
Thanks a bunch!

  There’s an issue with Clinique and associated brands, in particular they have different ingredients for the same products across different countries and they slightly modify the names and then they even overlap names with different products! It’s really annoying.
  I’ve reviewed the US versions of products. There are chemical names for licorice root, but I don’t see them in either of these products. Both look ok for nursing and pregnancy to me!

I’m sorry if this is a dumb question, but I want to be extra safe when it comes to my baby. When you mention it’s safe for pregnancy, example Moisture Surge 72 hour, does that also mean it’s safe for breastfeeding? Thank you so much!

Hi, thank you so much for your diligent research. Your site has been helping me so much! I have a question about the ingredient “Phenoxyethanol” which has said to not be pregnancy safe but is found in a lot of the Clinique products. I started using a sample of All About Eyes after reading this post but was shocked to find out that ingredient is in it. Do you think that ingredient is safe during pregnancy? Thank you

It looks like the Clinique even better makeup and repairwear lotion with SPF use zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide which are not chemical sunscreen but a mineral sunscreen. Which ingredient is the chemicals sunscreen in these products? Thanks!

  Christine said:
  
  There are a couple of options for the products you mentioned, I’ve put the names below. While they do have zinc or titanium in them they also have chemical sunscreens, for the first Even Better and the Repairwear they are listed next to the Zinc/Titanium under active ingredients, the 2nd even better doesn’t have those listed at all under active ingredients so it is just listed with the regular ingredients.
  
  • Even Better Glow™ Light Reflecting Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 15: Chemical Sunscreen (Octinoxate 6.0%), Salicylic Acid
  • Even Better™ Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 15: Chemical Sunscreen (Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate)
  
  • Repairwear Laser Focus™ Line Smoothing Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 15: Chemical Sunscreen (Octinoxate 7.5% )

Hi!
You put Clinique Clarifying Lotion #2 as pregnancy safe, but I just read the ingredients of mine and it has salicylic acid. Is it safe because it has a low percentage of it or did you perhaps miss that?

  Yes, I try to update the brand lists every 18-24 months at the most if I can, but this can be hard with my job and family. I update and add new products continually, but within the post you’ll see a date of the last full brand review. When I do a full review I delete the entire list and start fresh (so previous ingredients won’t bias me) and I review everything I can find on a brand’s US website. I also frequently go to popular reliable retailers and review any additional products I find there that might not appear on the brand list. I most recently reviewed all of Clinique at the end of May 2020, but lots of things have been added since then or things have shifted around as I’ve learned of any reformulations (which Clinique pretty much doesn’t seem to do, FYI. They do sometimes hide “active” ingredients by only listing them on the front of packaging and then not in the full list, that happens with sunscreens and salicylic acid for them.)

  I would not use it with salicylic acid. It is both a hydroxy acid and salicylate, which is why I screen for it. Info here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

Hi
Thank you for this helpful blog. I have been using Clinique for over 20 years. I am taking a fertility treatment and my doctor says that fragrance is an endocrine disruptor.
Are all Clinique products free fragrance?
I am using Soap mild, clarifying 2, Dramatically Different Hydrating Jelly purple, all about eyes, Superdefense City Block Broad Spectrum SPF 50. Are these products ok as part of my fertility treatment?
Also, which makeup can you recommend?
Thank you so much!

  I don’t screen out fragrances as they’re considered fine to use in pregnancy, and I’ve never heard of an REI specialist saying to avoid them. You’ll need to look at each of your products individually.

Hi, is the Clinique Moisture Surge™ Hydro-Infused Lotion safe for pregnancy? Thank you

Aloe Bioferment + HA Complex: This hydrating complex works in two ways—hyaluronic acid helps attract moisture, while aloe bioferment helps retain it. Take a deeper dive into each:
Hyaluronic acid: This moisture-binding ingredient helps create a “moisture reservoir” for ideal hydration
Aloe bioferment: Made with lactobacillus, activated aloe water, and responsibly sourced and certified organic aloe extract powder, this exclusive nutrient-rich ingredient helps skin retain moisture. One of the benefits of the fermentation process is that it breaks large molecules into smaller sizes, so they are better absorbed into skin.
Acetyl glucosamine: Helps smooth skin’s texture.

The Moisture Surge™ Hydrating Supercharged Concentrate does not have any sunscreen in it and the Pep-Start™ Daily UV Protector SPF 50 is not a chemical sunscreen, it is 100% mineral.
I just wanted to bring this to your attention to maybe review and make edits if necessary.
Thanks!
