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. 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 skincare products from Tula Skincare as of 4/14/2020 (note, this is after they reformulated most of their products). 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 note, it can take up to an hour to review the ingredient lists of each product. I review with my own list of pregnancy safe criteria. I obtain my ingredient lists from the brands and major retailers (typically Nordstrom and Sephora), and I review the US versions. Please do not ask me to re-review the same products over and over, I do not have the time to do so, and many people have been rude about this. For more brands, please head over to the list of pregnancy safe products.
Here are my recommendations for a full pregnancy safe skincare routine from Tula Skincare!

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!
Thank you for sharing and putting so much effort into this to make it easier for mamas to make safe, informed choices without spending a million years doing the research ourselves.
I am 6 weeks pregnant, and have used the Tula purifying cleanser, daily, until I realized, today, that it has retinyl palmitate, a form of retinol. I cried for about an hour, and am now so very worried that I have Done irreversible damage to my developing child. Please advise.
Please read my advice on this topic in the Pregnancy beauty FAQ, it isn’t as bad as you think!
I had the same discovery tonight. I don’t know how I missed it, but they really didn’t advertise it!! I used it for about a month before switching to Andalou Naturals but just realized tonight about the Retinyl.
I thought that’s listed as safe???
Tula reformulated almost their entire line in the fall of 2019, many of their products changed categories. Comments about safety before that time do not reflect the new formulations, which I very recently screened and are in the post above. Please don’t look comments to get safety information with the new formulations.
Hi, Tula just came out with two new products and was wondering if you would be able to review the ingredients whenever you have a moment to see if they are pregnancy safe. Thank you so much 🙂

Thank you!!
I just checked the ingredients on the Purifying Facial Cleanser, and I don’t see any retinol or retinol derivative. Did they change their ingredients? I know they changed their packaging. Here is what they have posted on their website:
Aqua/Water/Eau, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, Lauryl Glucoside, Glycerin, Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Hydrolyzed Rice Protein, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Vaccinium Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract, Cichorium Intybus (Chicory) Root Extract, Camelina Sativa Seed Oil, Lactose, Lactis Proteinum/Milk Protein/Protéine du lait, Yogurt Powder, Olus Oil/Vegetable Oil/Huile végétale, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Panthenol, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, Polyquaternium-10, Butylene Glycol, Glycereth-7 Caprylate/Caprate, Inulin, Pentylene Glycol, Caprylyl Glycol, Bulnesia Sarmientoi Wood Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Juniperus Mexicana Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil, Citric Acid, Sorbic Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disteareth-75 IPDI, Fragrance (Parfum), Phenethyl Alcohol, Alpha-Isomethyl ionone, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Linalool, Phenoxyethanol.
That’s a reformulation if true. This list looks ok, but check your package to make sure you have the new one. I just pulled the cleanser out of my cabinet (I may have bout like 5 when they were on sale on QVC last year), and retinyl palmitate is listed in the middle of the ingredients. I just updated above that it is pregnancy safe with this list of ingredients if that’s on yours!
Hi, I was looking over the Hydrating Day and night cream from Tula, and I don’t see reintol or any derivative of it. Can you verify? Maybe they changed the ingredients?
Aqua/Water/Eau, Butylene Glycol, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Squalane, Glycerin, Cetyl Alcohol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Dimethicone, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG 100 Stearate, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Lactose, Lactis Proteinum/Milk Protein/Protéine du lait, Yogurt Extract, Hydrolyzed Rice Protein, Cichorium Intybus (Chicory) Root Extract, Vaccinium Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract, Olus/Vegetable Oil/Huile végétale, Camelina Sativa Seed Oil, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract, Citrullus Lanatus (Watermelon) Fruit Extract, Lens Esculenta (Lentil) Fruit Extract, Sodium Lactate, Sodium PCA, Carbomer, Sodium Hydroxide, Pentylene Glycol, Caprylyl Glycol, Bulnesia Sarmientoi Wood Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Juniperus Mexicana Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil, Ethylhexylglycerin, Stearyl Alcohol, Disodium EDTA, Citric Acid, Sorbic Acid, Phenethyl Alcohol, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Phenoxyethanol, Parfum/Fragrance, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Linalool, Hexyl Cinnamal.
It looks like they changed it! They’ve been changing out packaging and other things I think. This list is pregnancy safe.

You have no idea how many times in the last 2 months I’ve started to fix this page, and then wordpress deleted my interim copies with the new products… ugh! I just powered through and went through the entire brand from a fresh list. It’s all fixed with the new versions. 🙂 I reviewed both of your lists above just in case for some odd reason something was different, but they’re both pregnancy and nursing safe too 🙂

You’re a lifesaver. Thank you for making it easy on an exhausted nursing mama to determine whether or not the products I have on hand are good to go. I know you spend time, effort and expense in doing this for others – it is VERY much appreciated!
🙂 Thank you!

The new formulation does not contain a retinoid and is pregnancy safe. The old formulation did, and was not pregnancy safe. The entire list is currently all of the new formulations.
Thank you for taking the time to make such an informative guide. I was wondering whether the Tula Firm Up Deep Wrinkle Serum is safe for pregnancy. I think it may be a new product that replaced the Volume Defense Deep Wrinkle Serum.

This looks fine
I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am for your time and dedication to helping pregnant women navigate the challenges of figuring out which products are safe!! Your work is incredible and well organized. It’s so easy to navigate.
My question is regarding Tula products that contain chicory root as I’ve read to avoid it during pregnancy. Why does Chicory root not make your lists of concerns?
Thank you, Katherine
Everything that makes my list is here:
skincare ingredients to avoid during pregnancy
The actual studies regarding chicory root aren’t well done and convincing enough to make my list, I don’t know any physicians that advise to avoid it while pregnant.
Thank you for your amazing blog! Tula is about to release a new sunscreen product – Protect and Glow. Could you please review it when it’s released? Thank you!

No, ok for nursing but not pregnancy. Already here in the comments.
Do you happen to have the ingredients of the day and night cream BEFORR they reformulated? I have a big bottle that I had before pregnancy that I wasn’t using while I was pregnant, but want to know if it is safe for breastfeeding. Unfortunately I don’t have the box anymore so I don’t have an ingredients list and their site of course only has the new, reformulated product.
I don’t have the ingredients from before reformulation, sorry.
The get toned toner is actually okay to use. Because it is only 10% glycolic acid, it will not enter the bloodstream. If the percentage is higher than 10 it is wise to stay away! Just thought I’d share!
Looks ok!
I have been finding your page so helpful through my pregnancy! Tula has a new exfoliator and I am wondering if this is pregnancy safe to use. Thank you!!
