Being pregnant is an exciting time for mummies everywhere! Pregnancy marks the beginning of a new chapter in a woman's life. It is a time when women get to experience the miracle of life and create a new human being. The thought of bringing a new life into the world is an overwhelming feeling that fills the heart with joy and excitement.

Although pregnancy is an amazing time in any woman's life, but it can also bring on a variety of skin problems. When a woman’s hormones fluctuate and increase during pregnancy, the result often includes changes to her skin.

Looking for the right skincare products can be a daunting task for pregnant mothers. It’s important to make sure you are using safe and pregnancy-friendly skin care that won’t harm you or your baby. Dr. Hauschka’s products are not only safe, but also serve to support pregnant women during their pregnancy. All of Dr. Hauschka’s products are subjected to intensive testing prior to product launch, and during the testing phase, the suitability of our products for breastfeeding mothers were also taken into account. As our products are 100% Natural, pregnant mothers can be assured that they are not putting harmful chemicals on their skin.

Here are some things to look out for when choosing pregnancy safe skincare products in Singapore.

Read Labels Carefully

With so many products to choose from on the market, pregnant mothers need to be extra cautious and read labels carefully in order to ensure they are providing their skin with optimal nourishment.

Many companies have started adding “Pregnancy Safe” or “Safe for Mummies” labels to their products, which is a great way to determine if a product is safe to use during pregnancy. However, it is still important to check the ingredients list and research any unfamiliar ingredients before purchasing the product. All of Dr. Hauschka’s products are Natrue Certified and every product package features the Natrue Certified seal. This means all the ingredients in our products have been tested to be 100% Natural, Derived Natural and Nature-Identical substances.

Another important factor when searching for pregnancy-safe skin care is avoiding certain ingredients like retinoids, salicylic acid, and hydroxy acids, as these have been known to be unsafe for pregnant women. Dr. Hauschka’s products do not contain GMOs, silicone, parabens, microplastics, synthetic fragrances or mineral oils.

Avoid Synthetic Fragrances Product

Finally, pregnant mums should use skincare products that are clear of synthetic fragrances because these fragrances can potentially cause serious harm to the developing fetus. Synthetic fragrances are often made up of a complex mixture of chemicals, some of which have been linked to various health concerns, including reproductive and developmental problems.

When synthetic fragrances are applied to the skin, they can be absorbed into the bloodstream and potentially cross the placenta, exposing the developing fetus to these chemicals. Some studies have suggested that exposure to certain synthetic fragrances during pregnancy may be linked to developmental delays, allergies, and even certain types of cancer.

Additionally, some pregnant women may experience sensitivity or allergic reactions to synthetic fragrances, which can lead to uncomfortable symptoms such as itching, redness, and swelling.

To minimize exposure to synthetic fragrances, pregnant women should look for skincare products that are labeled as "fragrance-free" or "unscented". These products will not contain any synthetic fragrances and are less likely to cause any adverse effects. Alternatively, they can consider using natural or organic products that use essential oils or other natural fragrances that are less likely to cause harm.

Look for natural and organic lines of skin care products in Singapore that avoid potentially damaging chemicals while still providing the nourishment your skin needs during this special time in your life.
