Although a woman may not have reactions to ingredients in skin-care products prior to being pregnant, she needs to consider all the potentially harmful ingredients in the products during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Chemicals from skin-care products seep into the bloodstream and, in extreme cases, can cause birth defects and allergies, and affect breast milk, report the doctors at the website BabyandPregnancy. Read the labels carefully to avoid skin-care ingredients that shouldn't be used while breastfeeding or when pregnant. Although it's not always easy to identify every ingredient in skin-care products because of proprietary trade secrets, some generic terms provide clues to the base of the materials.

Formaldehyde May Cause Allergic Reactions

Formaldehyde is a common ingredient used as a preservative in skin-care products. It is often hidden in materials with other names to prevent scaring people away from using it. Formaldehyde can cause serious allergies and allergic reactions in the breastfeeding baby. Some technical names used to indicate the presence of formaldehyde include hydroxymethylglycinate, DMDM-hydantoin and methenesmine.

Coconut oil has amazing benefits for skin and so much more. I use Coconut oil as a skin moisturizer, my husband occasionally suffers from dry ears so he rubs pure coconut oil over his ears and the coconut oil relieves his dry/crustiness. Coconut oil is a natural ingredient and it works wonders. See benefits of coconut oil here: http://wellnessmama.com/5734/101-uses-for-coconut-oil/

Moms can be anywhere from 11-12 years old and up....I'll be a "mom" into my grave, at well past 100 years.  The skin products aren't determined exclusively by whether or not one is a mother, but by age, ethnicity, skin type, climate, and many other factors.

Some "moms" probably need Clearasil.  Some moms may like Oil of Olay.  Some, Avon, and some that stuff Christie Brinkley uses, along with a million and one other things.  That industry could probably pay off the national debt for us using 1/3 its net earnings for less than 5 years. 

THANK YOU, DUCKY, FOR REMOVING THE ADVERTISING.
