Are Smuuti Skin products safe to use during pregnancy?Updated 16 hours ago
Our products are generally well-suited for use during pregnancy. š During pregnancy, skinās surface blood circulation increases, which often causes the well-known "pregnancy glow." However, this increased circulation can also mean that skincare ingredients may absorb into the bloodstream more than usual ā and thus reach the baby. For this reason, itās recommended to avoid certain ingredients:
- Retinol is one of the actives typically advised against during pregnancy, and none of our products contain it.
- Itās also recommended to avoid unnecessary added fragrances during pregnancy. With the exception of our Watermelon Jelly Cream and lip products, all our products are fragrance-free. Of course, using 1ā2 fragranced products is unlikely to cause harm, but itās worth considering your overall cosmetic routine and ingredient exposure.
- Our Watermelon Sun Cream is formulated with next-gen chemical UV filters. During pregnancy, it's generally recommended to use sunscreens with physical (mineral) filters instead.
If you have specific questions regarding your pregnancy and the cosmetics you use, please consult your doctor for more personalized and accurate advice.
