Top 5 Pregnancy Safe Skin Care Tips You Need To Know

Keep Up With Your Morning and Nightly Skincare Routines

Even if you had great skin pre-pregnancy, it’s common to experience skin changes — especially during the first and second trimester. Most issues are temporary and improve after giving birth. In the meantime, a consistent pregnancy-safe skincare routine for mornings and evenings can help keep your skin on track.

The key word when choosing products is gentle. Look for ingredients that are mild and non-irritating. Browse our cleansers collection for gentle, pregnancy-friendly options suited to sensitive skin.

The Importance of Exfoliation

If you’re experiencing dull or tired skin during pregnancy, a quality exfoliant can help. Our Pomegranate Enzyme Polish delivers a microdermabrasion-like treatment at home.

Used twice a week, a gentle exfoliant removes dead skin cells, improves product absorption, and helps even out an imbalanced complexion by allowing the skin to lighten dark spots.

Wear Sunscreen to Prevent Hyperpigmentation

Melasma — a skin condition caused by overexposure to the sun — is prevalent in pregnant women. Using a pregnancy-safe SPF before going out is one of the best precautions you can take. Our Defend Chemical-Free SPF 30 is free of harsh chemicals and can double as a tinted moisturizer or light foundation.

If you’re seeking treatment for hyperpigmentation, it’s best to wait until after you’ve finished breastfeeding, as many topical treatments contain chemicals that can enter the bloodstream.

Use Natural Ingredients

Plant-based ingredients are full of antioxidants like Vitamin C, which assists in repairing environmental damage and increasing collagen production. Gentle acids like lactic, glycolic, and azelaic can also help protect against toxins, free radicals, and UV rays.

Our Recharge Vita-C & Peptide Toning Mist is packed with Vitamin C and peptides to ward off harsh UVA/UVB rays and support a healthy, radiant complexion.

Get Regular Facials

Pregnant women can absolutely get a basic facial — and it may help with puffiness, dry skin, and acne. Always let your esthetician know you’re expecting before receiving services. Basic facials are fine, but avoid more aggressive procedures such as electric currents, chemical peels, or laser therapies during pregnancy.

Our TSB Signature Glow Facial is customized to your skin type and concerns after a thorough analysis — a safe, nurturing option for expectant moms.


Expecting a child is an exciting time. Finding a pregnancy-safe skincare regimen that leaves you looking and feeling great doesn’t have to be hard. Start your new routine now — your skin will look just as radiant as you feel in those newborn photos.
