Ingredients

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

Parfum

Low Risk

Umbrella term for an undisclosed fragrance blend. It’s not usually a pregnancy-specific concern at normal cosmetic use levels, but the exact components and concentrations aren’t fully disclosed on the label, so we score it more conservatively. If you prefer maximum transparency (or you’re sensitive to fragrance compounds), choose fragrance-free/unscented products.

Water

No Known Risks

Aluminum Chlorohydrate

No Known Risks

aluminum chlorohydrate is an aluminium antiperspirant ingredient. SCCS concluded that aluminium compounds are safe at the maximum cosmetic-use levels it assessed, with particle-size conditions for sprays. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for compliant topical use. This classification does not cover nano forms; avoid inhaling airborne product.

Isoceteth-20

No Known Risks

isoceteth-20 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.

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)

Dicaprylyl Ether

No Known Risks

A lightweight fatty ether used as an emollient and spreading agent. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that dicaprylyl ether is safe in current cosmetic use; reviewed developmental testing did not identify maternal or fetal toxicity and skin absorption was low. Safety for airbrush delivery was not established.

Glyceryl Isostearate

No Known Risks

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.

Laureth-7 Citrate

No Known Risks

Palmitamidopropyltrimonium Chloride

No Known Risks

palmitamidopropyltrimonium chloride is a cosmetic formulation, mineral, sugar-derived or organic-acid ingredient. Available identity, use and related safety evidence did not identify a pregnancy-specific concern for normal topical cosmetic exposure. Cosmetic-grade purity and ordinary irritation precautions remain applicable.

Glycol

No Known Risks

PEG-150 Distearate

No Known Risks

An ethoxylated stearate used as an emulsifier and surfactant. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed PEG stearates are safe in current practices. Manufacturing should control ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane residues.

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.
