Most of you know that TULA is one of my favorite skincare brands, and so I wanted to round up some of my favorite pregnancy-safe products by them! TULA is constantly growing and creating amazing new products, but I’ve noticed that not all are necessarily pregnancy-friendly. The main ingredients that pregnant women are advised to stay away from are salicylic acid and retinyl, and I always recommend my fellow expecting mamas to consult with their doctor/OB/physician.
A resource I have been using is 15minutebeauty.com for pregnancy-safe products by brand (I just search for the brand on her website). She definitely takes extra precaution in what she recommends and always errs on the side of caution. For example, I shared TULA’s Protect + Glow sunscreen with my OB after worrying about the salicylate and chemical sunscreen ingredients in it that the site mentioned, but my OB didn’t have any concerns even after she got a second opinion from the dermatologist at my doctor’s office – that being said, some doctor’s opinions may differ, and you’ll ultimately come to a decision with your OB.To give my expecting mamas the most confidence when using this blog post as a resource, I will be following the err side of caution and sharing my TULA favorites in this post without any questionable ingredients. π
