As a mother with two children in three years, from pregnancy to breastfeeding, there are 5 to 6 years from beginning to end in the "special" stage. There are also concerns about whether those skincare products or cosmetics can be used, and of course they can, even the most basic moisturizing and sun exposure are needed.
So, in this regard, I have also done some homework and the following two ingredients are not recommended.
Tretinoin
Most anti-aging products contain tretinoin (retinoid), which helps to firm the skin and improve skin tone. Retinoids speed up cells (help rejuvenate) and slow down the breakdown of collagen. Retinoids are one of the skincare products that experts recommend pregnant women to avoid. Some studies have found thatHigh doses of vitaminsaHarmful to the fetus。Oral vitamin A,Such as isotretinoin, which can cause malformations in infants。If you're using a day cream that contains vitamin A, you don't need to worry too much. There is no evidence that topical vitamin A affects the fetus, but exposure is generally avoided.
Salicylic acid
Salicylic acid can cause some disorders such as acne, similar to cleansers and toners. Salicylic acid can pass through the oil layer on the surface to the pores, cleansing the pores of dead skin. Salicylic acid belongs to aspirin, so it relieves inflammation and redness. BHA (butyl hydroxyanisole or salicylic acid) is used in some topical exfoliating products to reverse the signs of aging.
Studies have shown that:High doses of oral salicylic acid can cause fetal defects and various pregnancy syndromes。At the same time, doctors advise pregnant women to avoid the use of salicylic acid. But the dosage of salicylic acid in the toner is also safe to use once or twice a day.
In addition to the above two ingredients, it is recommended not to use them as much as possible, and some other ingredients are also recommended in this article.
Soybeans
Some skincare products that contain natural ingredients such as soy, it is often thought that they do not have ***, but sometimes the opposite is usually the case. Lotions and facial products that contain soy are known as safeBut soy that contains estrogen can aggravate dark spots on a pregnant woman's face。If you have melasma or dark**, avoid using these products and opt for some active soy ingredients that do not contain estrogen and do not aggravate dark spots.
Acne products
Many women get acne due to changes in estrogen in their bodies, even if they clean their face every day during the first trimester of pregnancy. If you want to ** acne during pregnancy,The best way to do this is to see a doctor, they may only prescribe the safest external antibiotics. But if you don't want to see a doctor, you canChoose a cleanser that does not containSalicylic acid, which is considered a safe dose of salicylic acid.
Hair removal cream
The goods are considered safe, and the only risk is allergies. Hair removal cream products are not absorbed into the bloodstreamTherefore, there is no effect on the fetus. If you have a history of allergies to hair removal creams, you should avoid them during pregnancy. Some expectant mothers' ** become particularly sensitive during pregnancy, so even if they weren't allergic to depilatory cream before they got pregnant, they won't necessarily be allergic during pregnancy. They can try it on a small area on their knees before using it on a large area, and then wait 24 hours to see if they have allergies.
Sunscreen
Sun protection is really important, and it's best to choose a "broad-spectrum" sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher, which can avoid both UVA and UVB. It is recommended to use a "physical" sunscreenThe main ingredient is zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, which are inert and will only remain on the surface of the skin and will not be absorbed. Here are some of my favorite sunscreens.
everedenChildren's sunscreen moisturizer
This sunscreen was selected after researchComplete physical sun protection, and more than 6 months old baby can also be used, even if the baby swallows a small amount of zinc oxide or titanium dioxide after painting, there is no need to worry, they will not produce any chemical changes in the body. Now that's basically what we're doing when we go out to the beach, and the only downside might be that it's hard to apply.
Skincare
The choice of skin care products during pregnancy is also very important, the main skin care products during pregnancy is to hydrate and moisturize, the simpler the ingredients, the better, such skin care products, also use rest assured, during pregnancy, the choice of skin care products has also stepped on a lot of thunder, learned many lessons. Next, I would like to recommend to you a water and milk set that I have been repurchasing.

PrimallyPrecious natural ingredients are used as raw materialsCaviar, white truffle, matsutake mushroom, dragon's blood and other ingredients, and there isIts texture is refreshing and non-greasy, the main thing is to hydrate and moisturize, soothe sensitivity, and repair sensitive skin.
Cosmetics
In general, ifCosmeticsMainly foundationNo irritating acne ingredientsThe surface is oil-free and does not clog pores. These products are considered safe and do not affect the fetus. If you're very careful, you can try mineral cosmetics, these products don't seep in** and don't cause irritation.
In fact, sometimes I see some mothers who are still very beautiful after they are pregnant. The only reason why I don't do it myself is one: lazy, so I deserve to be ugly, hahaha, so I can still be beautiful after pregnancy, but I must choose the right productIt's best to go for big brands, but also check the ingredients.
I used ANR all the time before I got pregnant, but later I found out that it has vitamin A, and FreshBlacktea, which has always been known as a natural ingredient, also has this ingredient, so I finally chose itClarinsClarins (he has one.)Anti-aging red bottleI can't use it, everything else can be used), and I changed it to haba when I was the second child.
How so? Because my own request is moisturizing sunscreen. If you don't know the ingredients of the skincare products you have in your hands, you can check them internally. Finally, there is the popular phrase "except for the dose, talking about toxicity is a hooligan". In fact, the above post has written that large doses can be harmful. So, if you apply it by mistake or use a small amount, it is still safe, and the key to pregnancy is to maintain a good mood. Finally, I wish every mother-to-be a good look throughout their pregnancy
