La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+M Triple Repair Body Moisturizer for Extra Dry Skin

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.

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.

Fatty alcohol used as an emollient and thickener. Not the same as drying alcohols and not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns.

A plant-derived fatty oil or butter used mainly as an emollient, conditioning ingredient or texture agent. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed plant-derived fatty acid oils are safe in current practices of use and concentration. This conclusion applies to cosmetic-grade fixed oils rather than similarly named volatile essential oils. Seed or food allergy may still matter for a susceptible person.

Emulsifier and emollient used to stabilise creams and lotions. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns at cosmetic exposure.

A high-molecular-weight polymer used to thicken and stabilise formulas. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that acryloyldimethyltaurate polymers are safe in current cosmetic practices. Absorption of the finished polymer is expected to be limited, with residual monomers controlled during manufacture.

Emulsifier used to stabilize creams and lotions. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support use of PEG stearates in cosmetics, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern identified for normal topical use.

Solvent and humectant used to improve texture and ingredient solubility. Low systemic exposure expected from topical cosmetic use.

A botanical extract or plant water used for conditioning, soothing or antioxidant support. Direct pregnancy studies of this exact cosmetic material were not identified, but no reproductive or developmental hazard was identified for normal topical exposure. Oral herbal or medicinal use is outside this classification.

Skin-identical barrier lipid used to support the stratum corneum and reduce dryness. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

A fatty ester, lipid-derived emulsifier or emollient used for texture and skin conditioning. These materials have low expected systemic exposure, and no pregnancy-specific reproductive or developmental hazard was identified for normal topical cosmetic use.

A high-molecular-weight silicone polymer used for film forming, smoothing and skin or hair conditioning. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review concluded that Dimethiconol and its assessed derivatives are safe in current cosmetic use. Its polymeric nature limits skin penetration, and available evidence does not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical exposure.

peg-20 methyl glucose sesquistearate is used as a cosmetic surfactant, emulsifier or conditioning agent. Relevant cosmetic-safety assessments support use when formulated to be non-irritating and with appropriate impurity controls. Local skin or eye irritation is possible at higher concentrations, but no pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical or rinse-off use.

Sodium chloride is used to adjust viscosity and texture in formulations; topical cosmetic use is considered low concern with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks.

A sugar, polysaccharide or related carbohydrate used for hydration, texture or formula support. No reproductive or developmental concern was identified for normal topical cosmetic exposure.

A cleansing and foam-supporting surfactant made from coconut-derived fatty chains. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that alkyl betaines, including coco-betaine, are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating. Surfactant-containing products may still sting eyes or irritated skin.

Disodium EDTA is a chelating agent used to improve formula stability and performance; it is considered low concern in topical cosmetic use, with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks at typical concentrations.

An amino-acid-derived surfactant or conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that amino acid alkyl amides are safe in current cosmetic practices when formulated to be non-irritating. Manufacturing and formulation should control nitrosamine formation where relevant.

Humectant and preservative booster used to support product stability. Low systemic exposure expected from topical cosmetic use.

vitreoscilla ferment is a fermentation-derived or microbial lysate cosmetic conditioning material. The assessment applies to the defined non-live cosmetic ingredient rather than live organisms or oral supplements. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical use; formulation purity and sensitivity remain relevant.

pH adjuster used in small amounts to maintain product stability. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns.

Polysaccharide carrier and bulking agent used for texture and delivery support. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Natural polysaccharide thickener used for stability and texture. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns.

Vitamin E antioxidant used to protect oils and support the skin barrier. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns at cosmetic exposure.
