Why Your Skin is So Unpredictable Right Now
What's Happening During Pregnancy?
-
Hormonal Surges
An increase in hormones can trigger excess oil production, leading to unexpected breakouts on the face and body.
-
Melanin Overdrive
Hormones stimulate pigment cells, which can cause melasma, also known as the "mask of pregnancy."
-
Compromised Barrier
Your skin's natural defenses can weaken, making it more prone to sensitivity, irritation, and dryness.

Your Pregnancy Skincare Questions, Answered
Are GLOWBIOTICS products safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?
That is an excellent and very important question. To make it easy and reassuring for you, all of the products featured in the Pregnancy-Safe Routine on this page have been carefully selected to be safe and effective for use during pregnancy and lactation.
While we stand by all our formulas, we do recommend avoiding our Retinol-based serums (Advanced Retinol Renewal Treatment and Ultimate Youth Restoring Serum) during this time, which aligns with general medical advice.
Products like our Probiotic Instant Resurfacing Pads are formulated with a gentle, low concentration of salicylic acid that is considered safe for use during pregnancy, helping you manage hormonal breakouts without risk.
Every pregnancy is unique, so we strongly recommend you review our product selections with your doctor or dermatologist to ensure they are the perfect fit for you and your baby.
What common skincare ingredients should I avoid while pregnant?
The main ingredients to avoid are Retinoids (like Retin-A, retinol, retinyl palmitate), Hydroquinone, and high-dose Salicylic Acid peels. Our entire pregnancy-safe collection is formulated without these ingredients, so you can feel confident in your routine.
How can I safely treat melasma (the "mask of pregnancy")?
The most effective strategy for melasma is prevention. Daily use of a mineral-based sunscreen is non-negotiable, as UV exposure is the primary trigger. To treat existing discoloration, gentle brighteners like Vitamin C are a safe and effective choice. We recommend our Advanced Vitamin-C Brightening Serum in the morning, followed by our Tinted Sunscreen SPF 30.
My skin is suddenly breaking out. Can I treat pregnancy acne?
It's very common for hormonal fluctuations to cause breakouts. While harsh acne treatments should be avoided, you can safely manage breakouts with gentle exfoliation. Our Probiotic Instant Resurfacing Pads use pregnancy-safe acids to keep pores clear without causing irritation.
My skin on my face and belly feels so dry and itchy. What can help?
Increased dryness and itchiness are common as your skin stretches and hormones change. Focus on soothing hydration and strengthening your skin's moisture barrier. Our Gentle Probiotic Calming Lotion is perfect for this, as it's designed to deeply hydrate and calm sensitive skin on both the face and body.
