Cosmetics

Cosmetics can be used in moderation during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

 

Various substances can be absorbed through the skin into the circulation, and during pregnancy the skin blood flow may be accelerated. In areas where a skin care product is applied is large, absorbance may be significant.

 

Because there is not enough data on the safety of many chemicals and compounds to the foetus, cosmetics should be used in moderation during pregnancy.
