My skin has gone so dry and dull since i got pregnant and im scared to use my old creams now. Read that some ingredients are not safe. Which ones are you all using these days?
My dermatologist said to stick to simple gentle moisturisers and avoid retinol and strong acids during pregnancy. I switched to a plain fragrance free cream and my skin was happy. Best to check ingredients or ask your doctor before trying new products.
I kept it really simple, just aloe vera gel and a mild moisturiser. Avoided fancy actives the whole time. For any skin issue beyond dryness I'd ask the doctor rather than experimenting.
Honestly a basic affordable moisturiser worked just fine for me, no need for expensive pregnancy ranges. Just go fragrance free and gentle. Save the money for the baby stuff.
