If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, you’ve probably heard that Botox and other injectables aren’t considered safe—mainly because there haven’t been enough studies on their effects during pregnancy or nursing. While it can feel discouraging to pause treatments (especially when self-care is already limited and exhaustion is high), the good news is there are safe, effective skincare products that can help you maintain smooth, glowing skin.
We’ve put together a list of our favorite pregnancy safe skincare products to help with fine lines, breakouts, pigmentation, and hydration—so you can feel confident and cared for throughout pregnancy and beyond.
1. AM Serum – A Pregnancy Safe Anti-Aging Serum ✨
Looking for a simple yet powerful step in your routine? Our AM Serum is packed with pregnancy safe ingredients that target multiple concerns at once:
-
Vitamin C + Resveratrol to brighten and protect against environmental stressors
-
Peptides + Plant-Based Stem Cells to support collagen and smooth expression lines
-
Niacinamide to even skin tone and prevent pigmentation
-
Hyaluronic Acid for deep hydration
With gentle lactic and fruit acids, it also softens fine lines and keeps your complexion radiant—all without ingredients that are off-limits during pregnancy.
2. CMPLXN Cleanser Duo – Gentle Cleansing for Sensitive Pregnancy Skin 🧖♀️
