Is Salicylic Acid Really Dangerous During Pregnancy?

I have combination/oily skin and it’s VERY hard to find products that don’t have this listed somewhere in the ingredients. I don’t use peels or creams or anything, only a facial wash and toner and oil control moisturizer (Vichy Normaderm and Avene products). Did you use products with salicylic acid during pregnancy?

i have used Biore face wash my whole pregnancy and never had a problem its helped with the breakouts i have! think your fine as long as your not eating it but talk to your doctor if it concerns you that much
I don’t know if it’s dangerous while pregnant, but I have terrible skin as well and I use Cetaphil. It is great for your skin. But I am sensitive to salicylic acid and it burns my skin so I have to buy products that don’t have it.
I’ve read they can cause miscarriage. You should ask your doctor. Im sure there’s something that would be safe for you to take.
EDIT- well, it might be, look on babycentre.com and they list what uses of it are safe and which aren’t.
If these products were known to be dangerous during pregnancy, they would have giant warning labels all over them saying so. As long as you don’t drink them, you’re fine.
I never read any ingredients on anything I used or anything I am using now! Is that bad?
i would think that as long as you are not drinking it, and using it in moderation you shoul dbe fine.
