Hi loritran, welcome and congratulations on your exciting news! You're absolutely right—navigating the world of skincare and makeup during pregnancy can be overwhelming. Having a curated section on Sephora’s site specifically for pregnancy and nursing-safe products would be a game changer. It would save expecting mothers so much time and anxiety, especially since ingredient lists can be complicated to understand without professional guidance. It’s a wonderful idea and definitely something Sephora should consider implementing. In the meantime, it’s great to see the community stepping up to help. For skincare, I recommend looking for products that are free from retinoids, salicylic acid in high concentrations, formaldehyde, and chemical sunscreens like oxybenzone. Instead, try using gentle cleansers, hydrating serums with hyaluronic acid, and mineral-based sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Brands like Biossance, Summer Fridays, and The Ordinary (select products) are popular choices and often considered safe when you're expecting.For makeup, mineral formulas are usually a safe bet. Stick to foundations and powders with simple, clean ingredient lists. ILIA Beauty and RMS Beauty have great reputations in the clean beauty space and are gentle on sensitive or hormonal skin. Always check with your healthcare provider or dermatologist if you're unsure, especially about active ingredients. Thanks again for raising this important topic—creating more accessible resources for pregnant and nursing mothers would definitely empower us all to make more informed and confident choices! https://www.magarideals.com/
