Make Yourself Look Good

are beauty products (facial) not good for pregnant women?

i am on 6wks & 3 days of pregnancy for my first baby. I have lots of questions just to make sure i know everything to have a safe and healthy pregnancy.
Today, i want to know if it’s true that facial beauty products like moisturizers, foam wash and make ups are not safe for pregnant.
My colleagues just told me that I should avoid doing make ups and creams for my face because it might have bad effect for my pregnancy. Also, doing manicure & pedicure is also not good.
Please give me some tips about this. thanks.

There’s no truth behind this.

The only thing that changes during pregnancy skin-wise is your oil output. Some people get more oily, some get drier. It’s best, if you are experiencing a change, to use facial products and make-up for your new skin-type until after you’ve had the baby. And that’s just for your comfort. You don’t want to wear moisturizer for dry skin if you now have oily skin, but it won’t harm you in any way. If you don’t have any changes to your skin type, just keep using what you have always been using, it won’t hurt you or the baby at all! Also, some people may say to stay away from Vitamin A. The TRACE amounts of Vitamin A in make-up, cleansers, and moisturizers are so miniscule that they could not possibly make it into your blood stream to the baby from your face. You would need to injest Vitamin A capsules for that to happen!

Also, manicures and pedicures are GODSENDS for pregnant women. They’re a delightful little treat…go spoil yourself and don’t worry about them causing any harm. Just make sure the aesthetician is clean and has good credentials, like always.

Have fun with it!
