The Best Organic Beauty Products For Pregnancy

Hey mamas! Pamper yourselves with these natural beauty products for pregnancy before your wee one arrives!

By Lora O’Brien

Despite the fact that the cosmetics industry is barely regulated at all, many women often don’t consider which chemicals may be lurking in their cosmetics until they become pregnant.

Sure, we all know we should avoid Botox and hair dye when we’re expecting, but the fact is that many mainstream skincare and makeup brands are full of harmful ingredients that can enter your bloodstream and cause illness ranging from skin conditions, kidney and liver disease to cancer. And that’s just for you. Who knows what they could do to ‘you junior’?

Obviously, any soon-to-be mom would surely rather be ‘better safe than sorry’ when it comes to choosing cosmetic products to use during her special 9 months. For help here, we asked expert Alicia Dell’Anna for her suggestions on products that she knows to be 100% safe for women – and their bumps.

Since 2013, Alicia has been providing concierge services to expectant mothers and young families across the globe. “During pregnancy, women become far more conscious of the ingredients in their beauty products,” she says. “But it’s hard for them to choose. After all, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by all the advice dispensed by in-laws, doctors, friends and family”.

Clients come to Delivered by Dell’Anna for a unique and tailor-made service to make their pregnancy as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.

With a little black book of all things mama and baby, here Alicia selected the 10 natural beauty products for pregnancy that she and her clients love most.

Unless you’re extremely lucky, with pregnancy comes hormonal acne. Most anti blemish cleansers contain salicylic acid, something doctors recommend you avoid during pregnancy. Luckily, Aesop’s anti-blemish mask helps to avoid spots by using the power of nature.

Chamomile, tea tree and evening primrose extracts combine with tea leaves and other natural ingredients to leave your skin feeling – and looking – wonderful!

7. Clean Rebellion Soap

The one natural beauty product you’ll use every day is, without a doubt, soap. And Clean Rebellion makes a great one! Called I Am Gorgeous, it’s a serious multitasker. Hello gorgeous! Featuring only three ingredients—water, a natural pink grapefruit scent and saponified organic olive oil— it gently purifies and smooths the skin. You can use it as a mild facial cleanser, body, and hand wash for beautiful results.

Price: Around $24

8. John Masters Scalp Stimulating Shampoo

Pregnancy was a disaster for my hair. It was oilier than usual, and after giving birth, it fell out by the handful. Scary! That’s why I was happy to find this invigorating shampoo. It cleanses and detoxifies hair without stripping moisture. That’s thanks to its blend of meadowsweet extract and eucalyptus oil, which rinses out dirt and oil, while invigorating the scalp. A mix of spearmint and peppermint add a fresh, cooling scent, too.

Price: Around $20

One of the best natural beauty products for pregnancy for: Dealing with oilier-than-usual hair.

9. Nailberry Nail Varnish

We’ve all been there. Your skin is breaking out, your legs feel bloated, your hair is lank and greasy. But at least your nails can look pretty! Non-toxic with loads of vibrant colours to choose from, Nailberry’s L’Oxygene polish formula uses patented technology to deliver a healthier manicure to mums.

This covers the nails with a luxurious film of colour that allows water vapour to pass through it, whilst making sure your natural nail is respected. Result? You’ll avoid any dryness, splitting and breakage associated with frequent nail polish wear.

Price: Around $20

One of the best natural beauty products for pregnancy for: Showing off the healthier-than-usual nails pregnancy can impart!

10. Elvie Pelvic Floor Trainer

Ok, this may be more for wellbeing than your beauty. But it’s gonna make you feel good. And that’s a beautiful thing, right?

I know from experience that after giving birth, you can feel like your pelvic floor doesn’t even exist anymore. Which isn’t great, because pelvic floor muscles are vital to strengthening your core. They also assist in bladder control.

Luckily, this nifty little device exists! It was designed by health professionals, scientific experts and – most importantly – women. It’s function? To get those pelvic muscles strong again. Think of it as your most intimate personal trainer!

It’s the world’s smallest and smartest Kegel exercise tracker, made from medical grade silicone with a beautifully ergonomic (and discrete) design. It comes with a carry case that also acts as a charger, allowing you to use it any place, any time.

No wonder celebs like Gwyneth Paltrow and Khloe Kardashian rave about this trainer, which helps you to prepare your body (or rebound) from the strains of pregnancy and childbirth.

Price: Around $200

One of the best natural beauty products for pregnancy for: Making you feel confident enough to sneeze again, without fearing ‘leakage’ after giving birth!

  1. when i found V SACHAR MD safe in pregnancy non toxic, makeup line on amazon i had to try it especially after i lost my first and was now pregnant with my second i changed my whole mind set and did everything differently, my daughter is now 4 months old and i still use his products did i mention that they are also cruelty free vegan and gluten free. the pigment is amazing.

  2. I am never disappointed with Made from Earth products. I use their Vitamin Enhanced Firming Serum. I removed any lines that I’m trying to reduce, but it’s a great moisturizer and I don’t have dry patches on my forehead or either sides of my nose anymore, which I am very happy about.

  3. Has anyone ever tried or heard of Hush & Dotti? They look very promising and I’ve read great things about them, but not from any expecting mothers.

  4. I have been trying to get into organic and natural beauty products and this seems like just the post that I needed to read, even with my lack of pregnancy, haha! All of these items look wonderful and I look forward to trying them out. Thanks!
