I´m not pregnant but I still found this video super helpful because it kind of gives me a sense of how "harmless" one product is compared to another and that can be useful no matter if you are growing a human or not 😀 "danke" from Germany!
I am 6 weeks pregnant.. and choosing a pregnancy safe sunscreen was my first concern when I found out that Im pregnant. I know some of my mom friends recommended mineral sunscreen. Its really good to know that chemical sunscreen its not harmful. Then I was worried that titanium dioxide was harmful so I was so paranoid in checking all Ingredients without it. Thank you for sharing this video. It really gave me confort knowing I’m not compromising my baby.
This is the video I was hoping for! I'll probably wait until PP/breastfeeding to go back to using UV clear but avoiding all chemical SPF isn't always easy. Though there are a lot of great mineral only options I love too. Just nice to hear the rationale behind what made you comfortable with it 😃 My fav products during pregnancy: Paula's choice BHA liquid, their defense serum, and their vit c, Naturium azelaic acid, drmtlgy's eye cream and needleless serum, CeraVe skin renewing night cream, EltaMD UV pure, colorscience's OG SPF, super goop sheer screen, vanicream daily moisturizer... Probably more, but that covers the top spots I think lol.
Pregnancy freaked my skin out like no other and that is what lead me to discovering the online skincare community. I used the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser and Versed Dew Point Moisturizing Gel Cream in my final weeks and those two really helped calm my excessive oiliness and soothe my extremely broken out skin. I didn't have a sunscreen at the time, its taken me months to find ones I like. My current favorite is the Black Girl Sunscreen Kids SPF 50, and if I ever go through pregnancy again, I would continue using a chemic spf and feel safe doing so. I just haven't had good luck with mineral spfs, especially being a medium skin tone.
Thank you for mentioning sunscreen and the fact that some people just don’t like mineral sunscreens. It is nice to hear someone not shame chemical sunscreen for a change. Plus some people are also sensitive to zinc based skincare.
Another not pregnant and with no plans to be, but i really found this very interesting! we always listening about not use retinol but never about all the other ingredients! good job!!
Omg, I needed this video so much, thank you! Currently 9 weeks pregnant with my first 🥰 and was worried about many ingredients. After this video I will go back to using normal deodorant, because “natural” ones suck and will peacefully use my Cerave salicylic acid cleanser. I’ve got a question though - can I use moisturizer with 10% urea? It’s the only one ingredient that really helps my keratosis pilaris on my thighs, but pharmacist warned me about it during pregnancy. What’s your take on this?
+Dr. Sam Ellis can do you PLEASE do a follow up video of safe skin care procedures while breastfeeding (e.g. morpheus (with numbing), botox, filler, emface, scuptra, etc).
Such a helpful video, thank you! It answered a question I’d been confused about - using retinoids while TTC (as opposed to during pregnancy itself when it’s obviously a no). I’ve been trying to get pregnant for almost 2 years and struggling with my acne without a retinoid in my routine, but will stick to the BHA and azelaic acid!
I was so afraid of using benzoyl peroxide so I used azelaic acid since that’s all I was told was safe. Well, azelaic acid is itchy even when I mix it with moisturizer, it also didn’t do much. Going back to benzoyl peroxide.
I never understood the fear of chemical sunscreen. Maybe because I have hyperhidrosis but the mineral sunscreens burn. Those don’t go well with my skin. I really like the LR-P spf 100 Hey Dr Sam, are the creams for the body for hyperhidrosis, are they ok to use on the face? Love you Dr Sam!!!!
This was SO helpful and realistic. Thank you. Side note: willow bark in a peel pad. I know it’s only considered salicylic acid when ingested.. so it’s ok? It’s the gentle peel pads by dr Dennis gross. The blue ones. ❤
I find those exfoliating mitts, I use before a shave 2-3x a week, and the ordinary brand glycolic 7% toner 2x a week,, have been the most effective for leg ingrown hairs. Loose clothing when possible too.
Hello DR. Ellis I am freaking out. I have being using the ordinary retinol for about 2 months now! I am 5 months along. I want to cry. Why doctors don’t tell us this when we go for our first pregnancy appointment.😭😭
My skin got extremely DRY while being pregnant and I read that using acids to exfoliate is not good. So now I'm stuck with excess skin that peels off but also is super dry
Thanks so much for this awesome video, Dr. Ellis!!! How do you feel about using urea cream/lotion while pregnant or nursing? Between glycolic acid, lactic acid and urea, which ingredient would you recommend using for KP while pregnant or nursing?
Thanks for this. I have 2 questions: I heard retinol/yl palmitate is not a true retinoids and may be ok during pregnancy. Also, can some retinoids be used while breastfeeding? I’m so eager to get back to my usual skincare routine but also want to breastfeed as long as I can.
not even planning to get pregnant (maybe ever) but good to know what to take off the shelf if i ever did namely tretinoin, HQ, and rogaine as i'm using all three of them
Hi Dr. Sam. Thank you for all that you do! I am loving your Hyperchlorous spray and Gleanser from your Prequel line! Quick question- I have the Glytone Brightening Complex and it says on the box that it isn’t safe for pregnancy. Can you clarify this?
Hello. I just discovered your channel, and love the information it provides. I am currently pregnant and was wondering if you could make a video about Bakuchiol during pregnancy.
Thank you! My Derm told me to stop benzoyl peroxide wash in pregnancy because it hadn’t been tested. But my skin blows up with horrible scarring acne without it. Lo and behold my skin is now blowing up since I haven’t used my BPO wash for 3 weeks. I’m going back to it today.
Thank you, I am somehow relieved. I used sulfur soap for 3 weeks. It is the only thing which helped with the itching of my tummy and in between my breasts. I have read some people say to avoid it and was worried. I used the Dr. Kaufmann's.
Thank you so much Dr. Sam Ellis! I do have one question which I'm assuming is yes but still would like your input. Is ferulic acid safe during pregnancy? I know it's used in a lot of vitamin C formulations. I'm pregnant with baby #2 and though I do consult with my own doctor regarding skincare ingredients, I highly value your videos on this topic. Because of you I used Adapalene during breastfeeding and my skin thanked me for it. Love you content and hope your babe is doing well!❤️
Thank you! Breastfeeding is essentially the same (but of course avoid putting any leave-on skincare directly on the area the baby is latching), but I’m okay with topical retinoids during this time. Would still avoid hydroquinone and minoxidil.
do I need Azelaic Acid Emulsion 10% if I don't have acne during pregnancy. I'm using vitamin C in the morning from biossance, so not sure if I need to add this from Naturium. Thanks!
Hi Dr. Ellis! Great video. Please is it safe to use a face cream that has a low percentage of retinol or it should be avoided completely? Pls I need your help on this. Thank you in advance 🙏🏼
Thank you thank you! for the sunscreen info! I am not pregnant but trying to (well maybe..), anyway I cant find any mineral sunscreen that I really like and want to apply regularly 😫.
Hi Dr. Sam, thank you for your content! I am using Biafine triethanolamine for a while as a night-time moisturizer (it's the only thing that doesn't irritate my eyes), is that safe to use during pregnancy?
I stayed away from my beloved BHA because I read you can’t have them in pregnancy… and then I realised I’m taking 150mg of Aspirin every day for the whole pregnancy for pre-eclampsia prevention and preventing blood clotting issues 😭😂 so compared to what I was taking orally, what I’d put on my face is nothing! You know what makes this worse? I’m a medical student 💀 who forgot what aspirin is made of…
First i have seen ur short video on ingredients that u didn't avoid during ur pregnancy... And now I came to this video... Here I didn't get a good dermatologist who can educate us... We need to choose our skin care carefully specially for acne prone skin like me
Hi there, I am 5 months pregnant was sold a moisturiser that has BRIGHTENING INGREDIENTS: NIACINAMIDE, OCTADECENEDIOIC ACID AND RUMEX OCCIDENTALIS EXTRACT. I am wondering if the octadecendioic acid and rumex occidentalis extract are safe during pregnancy (mostly if it is highly absorbed or not like other skin lighting ingredients you have to avoid). Kind regards
I loved using Azelaic acid and vitamin c for keeping my skin clear and fighting hyperpigmentation. I also used salicylic acid and lactic acid once in a while. Can alpha arbutin or hydroquinone be used while breastfeeding?
@@karynaortega5541 I use Vitamin c first on bare skin to get the maximum effects, then azelaic acid :) You can do either morning or night or do one in the morning and the other at night.
I recently started using “pregnancy safe” products from IS Clinical (advertised by them and the esthetician) but see that retinol is in their vitamin C blend. They claim all their products including Pro Heal Serum are “non systemic” and therefore pregnancy safe. Can they really claim this?
Hi Doctor, thanl you so much for this video, so helpful. I am 5 months (20w) pregnant and is having worsening face and neck darkening,I am sorry if you already addressed this somewhere else but is that brand Topicals Faded serum safe to use? T.I.A.!
What about octinoxate and oxybenzone containing lip balm during third trimester pregnancy? Please reply me..I am worried because I am using since 1 month back on my third trimester
I have patients who ask about the safety of rose hip oil. Given the concentration of vitamin A, does anyone know of a reference re safety data in pregnancy?
Hi! I am having the hardest time findings answers on how soon you should stop the use of the retinoid before trying to conceive. My derm said for me to stop my tazarotene 3 months before I stop my birth control but I felt that was excessive as others have told me one month. Also, is it good to almost kind of gradually stop a retinoid? Or is it best to stop cold turkey and start your new pregnancy safe routine?
This is THE best information! I was off of Tret during my last pregnancy and reintroduced when I weaned at 14 months. I was using it for two months and then got a positive pregnancy test, so back off of tretinoin I go! Glad I only have to wait 8 months! 🙌
