During pregnancy your body goes through many changes, so it’s important to build a skincare routine that supports, nourishes, and is gentle on your skin. Look for clean, fragrance-free, calming, and soothing products, infused with hydrating and conditioning ingredients. For alternatives to retinol, bakuchiol or phyto-retinols are plant-based and share many of the same glow-boosting benefits while still being gentle on skin. Mineral sunscreen is a soothing, sensitive-skin friendly option if you’re looking to move away from chemical sunscreen.
While many skincare ingredients are generally considered safe for use during pregnancy, we always recommend consulting your healthcare provider before adding any new products to your routine. Every pregnancy is unique and professional guidance ensures your skincare choices are right for you during this special time.
