I've been using the Obagi system and it worked wonders but I will stop using the set since I am planning to have a baby soon. Here are the list of products I am thinking of using. If you have an idea, hope you could let me know if they are safe during pregnancy. If you also have any recommendations please let me know as well. I'll truly appreciate your help. Thank you so much!
Facial wash:
- Neutrogena grapefruit facial wash or
- Neutrogena deep clean facial wash
Toner:
- Clinique clarifying lotion 3 or
- Dickinson's original witch hazel
Moisturizer:
- Clinique Dramatically different moisturizing gel
Eye cream:
- Algenist complete eye renewal balm or
- Clarins eye contour balm or
- Clinique all about eyes
- Kiehl's midnight recovery eye
Sunscreen
- Obagi spf 35 |

| I think it's best to show the list of ingredients of these products to your doctor. |

| When I was pregnant, I stayed away from Retinol and acids along with chemicals such as parabens, etc. Just the basic, all natural products, and there are even skin care lines made just for pregnancy (can't remember the brands but you can google it). |

Thanks all for your suggestions.
I will check the links you gave me. Some of the products from 15minutebeauty are available from where I live which is great!
I will also check smartmommyhealthybaby, I might find something I like from there as well. But I have to see if they could ship to my country and if shipping isn't too expensive.
I'm a bit worried though that when I stop using Obagi, my skin especially my nose area would start having acne again. Obagi so far is the only product that stopped my acne. I rarely get acne before, but when I do, it's usually on my nose and it gets huge. Argh. I guess I just have to deal with it. |

| The safest products during pregnancy are organic or contain glycolic acid which is just made from a sugar, if you want to be really particular. You should avoid any of the vitamin A creams or retinoids like retinol, retinA, renova, eatc. |

| I didn't put anything on except Cetaphil moisturizing creme while I was pregnant just for safety concern. |
