Lightweight emollient ester used to improve slip and skin feel. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical cosmetic use.
Sources: CIR cosmetic ingredient safety references for alkyl esters/emollient esters; EU CosIng / cosmetics regulatory inventory
Common emollient derived from fatty acids and glycerin. Used to soften skin and improve texture without pregnancy-specific concerns.
Sources: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (US); Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (EU)
An ethoxylated glyceride used as an emulsifier, cleanser or solubiliser. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that related PEGylated glycerides are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating. Manufacturing should control residual ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane.

Inert wax/structuring ingredient used to add body, stability and texture to cosmetics. Normal topical use is expected to have low systemic exposure, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern identified in reviewed cosmetic references.

A sorbitan fatty-acid ester used as an emulsifier and surfactant. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that sorbitan esters are safe in current cosmetic practices of use. Sorbitan sesquioleate can occasionally cause contact allergy and has produced reactions in a small proportion of people investigated for dermatitis, so this classification does not mean that sensitive skin cannot react. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical cosmetic exposure.

A plant-derived oil or hydrogenated wax used mainly as an emollient and skin-conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that these named sea buckthorn, tea seed, jojoba and grape seed ingredients are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Plant allergy remains possible.

A triterpene glycoside associated with Centella asiatica and used in soothing and skin-conditioning formulas. Pregnancy-specific evidence for isolated topical madecassoside is limited. Cosmetic safety reviewers considered Centella-derived ingredients acceptable at current cosmetic exposure but noted that madecassoside and related triterpenes may contribute to sensitisation, so products should be formulated to avoid sensitising concentrations. No pregnancy-specific topical contraindication was identified in the reviewed material.

Botanical skin-conditioning ingredient used in soothing and barrier-support formulas. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support current cosmetic use when formulated to be non-sensitising, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical concern identified in the material reviewed.

A triterpene glycoside associated with Centella asiatica and used in soothing and skin-conditioning formulas. Pregnancy-specific evidence for isolated topical asiaticoside is limited. Cosmetic safety reviewers considered Centella-derived ingredients acceptable at current cosmetic exposure but noted that asiaticoside and related triterpenes may contribute to sensitisation. No pregnancy-specific topical contraindication was identified in the reviewed material.

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.
