Ingredients

Ingredients with a higher risk flag appear first, followed by the rest of the formula.

Phenoxyethanol

Low Risk

Phenoxyethanol is a preservative permitted in EU cosmetics up to 1.0%. The SCCS concluded it is safe for cosmetic use at that level, including when considering higher cosmetic exposure scenarios in infants and young children. Main practical concern is irritation/stinging on very sensitive or compromised skin rather than a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific risk.

Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract

Low Risk

Pregnancy concerns around licorice are based mainly on high oral glycyrrhizin intake, which has been linked to shorter gestation and cortisol-related effects in offspring; by contrast, licorice root extracts have been assessed as safe as used in cosmetics, so routine topical skincare exposure fits a cautious low-risk classification.

Sources: CIR safe-as-used assessment for licorice cosmetic ingredients; Strandberg et al. 2002 on preterm birth with heavy oral licorice intake; Räikkönen et al. 2010 on cortisol-related offspring effects after prenatal oral glycyrrhizin exposure

Lactic Acid

Low Risk

Endogenous alpha-hydroxy acid and humectant; at modest cosmetic concentrations (≈5% and below, and generally <10%) topical lactic acid is considered compatible with pregnancy. Main risks are local irritation and increased photosensitivity rather than systemic toxicity or fetal effects.

Water

No Known Risks

Cocamidopropyl Betaine

No Known Risks

Mild amphoteric surfactant used in cleansers and shampoos to boost foam and reduce harshness. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support present cosmetic use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified; the main practical caveat is irritation or allergy in some users, sometimes linked to sensitising impurities.

Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate

No Known Risks

An anionic surfactant used mainly in gentle cleansers and shampoos. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that alkyl PEG sulfosuccinates, including disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating and manufactured with appropriate impurity controls.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate

No Known Risks

An anionic surfactant used for cleansing and foam. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that sodium lauryl sulfoacetate is safe in current practices. It is distinct from sodium lauryl sulfate, although either surfactant can irritate sensitive skin in a strong cleanser.

Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate

No Known Risks

A mild anionic surfactant derived from fatty acids and methyltaurate, used mainly in cleansers and shampoos. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the reviewed taurate surfactants, including sodium methyl cocoyl taurate, are safe in current cosmetic use when formulated to be non-irritating. No pregnancy-specific concern is identified for normal topical exposure.

Decyl Glucoside

No Known Risks

Mild nonionic surfactant used in cleansers and emulsions. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references support normal topical rinse-off and leave-on use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern identified; sensitive skin may still react to surfactants.

Sources: CIR: Safety Assessment of Alkyl Glucosides as Used in Cosmetics; EU CosIng / cosmetics regulatory inventory

Cocamide Methyl Mea

No Known Risks

A fatty-acid monoethanolamide used mainly to boost foam, condition hair or control viscosity. CIR concluded that the reviewed ethanolamides, including Cocamide MEA, Cocamide Methyl MEA, Acetamide MEA and related MEA amides, are safe in current cosmetic use when formulated to be non-irritating and should not be used where N-nitroso compounds may form. Available systemic, genotoxicity and cosmetic-exposure evidence did not identify a pregnancy-specific concern. This assessment assumes compliant impurity control and is not an assessment of concentrated occupational inhalation exposure.

How to use this assessment

The risk band is the primary conclusion. The score adds detail within that band and should not be used to compare products as if a one-point difference were clinically meaningful.

MamaSkin provides pregnancy-focused information, not medical advice. Your midwife, GP, pharmacist or dermatologist should take priority when your circumstances differ from typical cosmetic use.
