During pregnancy, it's generally advised to avoid retinoids (Vitamin A derivatives), high concentrations of salicylic acid, hydroquinone, and certain essential oils. Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
Why is Korean skincare a good choice for pregnancy?
Korean skincare often emphasizes gentle, hydrating, and barrier-supporting ingredients, making many formulations naturally suitable for sensitive or changing skin during pregnancy. Many brands offer transparent ingredient lists.

Look for products explicitly labeled 'pregnancy-safe' or 'maternity-friendly,' and always review the ingredient list for known contraindications. When in doubt, consult your doctor or dermatologist.
