Pregnancy Safe Skincare from COSRx

Pregnancy Safe Skincare from COSRx

Pregnancy safe skincare 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 every pregnancy safe skincare product from COSRx as of 12/6/2022 If a product 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.

    Thank you so much for all of your expertise and guidance! My question is about the safety during pregnancy of the CosRX Triple C Lightning Liquid. It’s full ingredient list is: Aronia Melanocarpa fruit extract (Black Chokeberry), Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), Butylene glycol, Sodium lactate, Licorice root extract, 1,2- Hexanediol, Pullulan, Sodium hyaluronate, Cassia obtusifolia seed extract, Allantoin

    Thank you in advance for your help!

      I would avoid during pregnancy due to the licorice root, but it is ok for nursing.

        but could nit find anuthing to say that it topically disturbs anything……

          There’s more information in my post on skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy. It is thought to act via some of the same mechanisms as other skin lighteners such as hydroquinone. Most of the ingredients we say to avoid are more theoretical reasons to avoid rather than hard evidence that they are unsafe. I added licorice root to the list because an increasing number of my OB friends were concerned about this ingredient during pregnancy. As I call out the ingredient of concern for every product, if you’re ok with Licorice root it is very easy for you to still use those products.

            Hi, according to https://www.15minutebeauty.com/pregnancy-skin-care-ingredients-avoid.html, it is said that 15minute is not sure about Sodium Hyaluronate. So i have no idea why Christian claimed it is safe.

            Christine said:

            You’re misreading. I’m Christine, I’m the blogger that writes 15 Minute Beauty.
            What I stated in that post is that I don’t know how HA keeps ending up on people’s “to avoid” lists, as it is a very large molecule that is already made in large quantities in your body, so not only is it already already there but it is so large that it has a very difficult time moving throughout the body. It is absolutely safe in pregnancy and is not an ingredient I screen out for my site.

    Hi! I just bought CosRx Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence which is listed as pregnancy safe here, but saw that it has snail secretion filtrate. I’m not sure if it’s a new formulation. Should I still use it?

        Reese Fernando said:

        Hi Doc! You are right, I just got the package today and no snail secretion filtrate indicated on the list of ingredients. I think the online shop where I got it from just typed it by mistake. Thank you so much for your posts, you are a gem to preggy skincare addicts like me! 🙂

            Christine said:

            In particular that’s an ingredient that we don’t know much about in terms of what is in it, and it can vary a lot more than similar ingredients (like bee venom, that’s much more uniform). The discussion is in here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy
            As always, I call out the ingredients that I don’t feel quite right are saying “this is definitely safe”, but I list them out so if you disagree with me you have the info.

    Do you have any scientific or medical ground for saying snail secretion filtrate is harmful during pregnancy and nursing? I’ve asked to COSRX about the safety of snail secretion, and they answered it is safe to use it during pregnancy and nursing. They also have confirmed that there is no glycolic acid in snail secretion filtrate

    • 1.15.20
      15mins said:

      My argument is here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

      Basically it boils down to we don’t know for sure what is in there fully and it has no safety data. That’s all, so I call it out as something to watch out for but it’s really up to you if you feel ok using it or not.

I got scared when I realize that I should have checked them before using. The first thing I googled is if CosRx is safe for nursing moms, then your blog came up and now I can relax knowing that most of the products I use is ok. You don’t know how relive I am. Imagine if your blog is not available. Most of us would be panicking right now. Again THANK YOU!

    Hello there, First, just wanted to say Thank You for all your hard work that you do for us! And wanted to double check with you about COSRX BHA Blackhead Power Liquid that contains 4% natural BHA component of Betaine Salicylate which is (according google info) twice as gentle as salicylic acid, i.e. a 4% betaine salicylate product is similar to a 2% salicylic acid one. And they say that products with 2% and lower are safe to use during pregnancy. Just wanted to know your thoughts about this. I am 37 weeks pregnant never used this before.

    • 5.4.20
      15mins said:

      It still isn’t safe. There’s more on this thought process in this post: https://www.15minutebeauty.com/pregnancy-safe-beauty-faq.html

      First, there’s no studies regarding safety during pregnancy for most ingredients, and we can’t do those studies as they’re actually unethical.

      Second, given we don’t know if things are actually safe or not, we also don’t have exact cut offs for when something is actually safe. I can’t do a study to say 1% salicylic acid is safe but 4% isn’t. A “natural” version like you’re talking about is chemically the same regardless of where you have sourced it.
      Along those same thoughts, would a higher percent be ok if you applied to only half of your face? What about if it is your body? Which trimester, but then what if you have your dates wrong? What if you have an eczema flare up and your skin is absorbing ingredients more easily? It kind of goes on and on. We can’t study any of this.
      Because of those reasons, if there’s enough reason to think an ingredient is unsafe, we recommend complete avoidance. There’s not really a gradient of this, it’s an all or nothing thing. If you’re comfortable with it that’s fine, it’s your body and your choice, but I won’t recommend it as safe on my site.

            Hi Doctor, just some confusion. The betaine in the ingredients of the pregnancy safe products including the galactomyces toners is a salicylate. Does this mean it is unsafe? The product contains a warning about not using it if you have an aspirin allergy (despite absence of word salicylate after betaine in ingredient list).

    Hi, thank you so much for your information packed blog. It has been very helpful to me and I’m happy I found it while I was pregnant. I have some new products from Cosrx and my question is regarding snail mucin. I see you have some products listed as “safe for nursing/not safe for pregnancy” due to snail secretion and salicylate, but under “not safe for pregnancy or nursing” you have other products with snail secretion and salicylate. I feel confused by this and am wondering if the snail mucin essence I have is safe while I am breastfeeding. Thank you

      I think that’s honestly a formatting error. When putting these lists together on my view I do it in html, that makes it easier to put everything in for the link to go to the correct location. But it gets busy looking and sometimes things are in the wrong spot. Both should be fine for nursing, but not pregnancy. I fixed it now.

    Hi! I am just trying to understand… I thought a chemical sunscreen is safe as long as it doesn’t contain “oxybenzone” which Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF50 PA+++ doesn’t have. Why is still not safe?
    Thank you!

    • 10.22.20
      Christine said:

      Oxybenzone is just the one with the most evidence against it (it was recently linked to Hirschsprung’s Disease), but I recommended avoiding all chemical sunscreens before that. They’re all absorbed into the body and some are salicylates (which need to be avoided for other reasons). More info here: skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy

          All over the counter products are under 2%, which is the most that can be sold without a prescription. Which is key to know, because brands want you to think it’s safe (so you’ll buy it), but we don’t have information to support that. Discussion in this post: But what about this % of an ingredient?

    Hey! Thank you for the list!
    Still trying to understand that why some of the COSRX `s BHA and AHA products are nursing safe if every other article says to avoid BHAs and AHAs?

    Doing my research – currently nursing, but ordered COSRX aha bha C-vitamin and bha toner…

    • 9.4.21
      Christine said:

      It’s because they name them that but they’re counting ingredients found within extracts/oil, which don’t matter for pregnancy safety. The AHA/BHAs do need to be avoided, but they only count if listed separately as chemicals.
