Ingredients

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

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate

Low Risk

A purified glycyrrhizic-acid salt used as a soothing and skin-conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that dipotassium glycyrrhizate is safe in current cosmetic use and noted poor dermal absorption. MamaSkin nevertheless applies a cautious low-risk classification for consistency with the existing licorice family because high oral glycyrrhizin exposure has pregnancy-related concerns; this is not a topical contraindication.

Water

No Known Risks

Glycerin

No Known Risks

Glycerin is a widely used humectant that supports hydration and the skin barrier, with a long safety record and no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic use.

Snail Secretion Filtrate

No Known Risks

An animal-derived protein, peptide or secretion filtrate used for hydration and skin conditioning. These large components are expected to have low systemic absorption through intact skin. No pregnancy-specific hazard signal was identified for normal topical cosmetic use. Cosmetic-grade materials should be processed to control microorganisms, infectious agents and source-derived impurities, and protein allergy remains possible.

Niacinamide

No Known Risks

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) is widely used for barrier support and tone/texture benefits, and is generally considered safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding when used topically at cosmetic concentrations.

Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation

Carrageenan

No Known Risks

A plant-derived carbohydrate polymer or modified starch used to thicken, stabilise or condition a formula. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the supported plant polysaccharide gums and derivatives are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Loose powders should still be used without deliberately inhaling airborne particles.

1,2-Hexanediol

No Known Risks

1,2-Hexanediol is commonly used as a solvent and preservative booster; topical exposure is low and it has no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns at cosmetic concentrations, though very sensitive skin may occasionally react.

Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum

No Known Risks

A plant-derived carbohydrate polymer or modified starch used to thicken, stabilise or condition a formula. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the supported plant polysaccharide gums and derivatives are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Loose powders should still be used without deliberately inhaling airborne particles.

Betaine

No Known Risks

Betaine is a humectant/osmolyte used to support hydration and reduce irritation potential in formulas; it is considered low concern with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks in topical cosmetic use.

Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation

Hydroxyacetophenone

No Known Risks

Hydroxyacetophenone is used as an antioxidant and preservative-support ingredient; it is generally considered low concern in topical cosmetic use with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks at typical concentrations.

Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation

Allantoin

No Known Risks

Allantoin is a soothing skin protectant commonly used to help reduce irritation and support comfort, with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic use.

Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation

Chlorphenesin

No Known Risks

Preservative used to help protect formulas from microbial growth. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support present cosmetic use; no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical concern was identified in the material reviewed, although some users may still notice local irritation or sensitivity.

Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba Gum

No Known Risks

A plant-derived carbohydrate polymer or modified starch used to thicken, stabilise or condition a formula. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the supported plant polysaccharide gums and derivatives are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Loose powders should still be used without deliberately inhaling airborne particles.

Calcium Chloride

No Known Risks

A common inorganic electrolyte used to control viscosity, stabilise a formula or condition skin. At cosmetic concentrations these salts do not present a pregnancy-specific concern; concentrated formulas can still sting damaged or very sensitive skin.

Sources: European Commission CosIng ingredient inventory; PubChem compound records for potassium chloride, magnesium chloride and calcium chloride; established pharmaceutical and food use of these electrolytes.

Butylene Glycol

No Known Risks

Solvent and humectant commonly used in leave-on products. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns at cosmetic exposure levels.

Sources: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (US); Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (EU)

Sucrose

No Known Risks

This sugar or sugar alcohol is used as a humectant and skin-conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic Ingredient Review assessments support these saccharides in current cosmetic use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern identified for normal topical exposure.

Cellulose Gum

No Known Risks

Cellulose-derived thickener and binder used to stabilise texture. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Ethylhexylglycerin

No Known Risks

Preservative booster and skin-conditioning agent. Considered safe for cosmetic use with low systemic exposure when used as intended.

Sources: Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (EU); Cosmetic Ingredient Review (US)

PEG-90m

No Known Risks

A high-molecular-weight polymer used for film formation, texture, stabilisation or conditioning. Meaningful dermal absorption of the intact polymer is expected to be limited, and no reproductive or developmental concern was identified for normal topical cosmetic use.

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.
