Everything changes when you're pregnant: Your lifestyle, diet, mood, and the most obvious of them all, your body. And in addition to the baby bump, your skin may undergo some changes throughout your pregnancy. It's different for every woman — effects range from that storied pregnancy glow, to hormonal breakouts, skin pigmentation, and even increased sensitivity.

Because of all these changes — not to mention, the health of your baby — you're probably going to want to think twice about your beauty routine. Just as with food and activities, there are so many different chemicals and ingredients you watch out for. You're going to want to avoid ingredients like retinol, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, formaldehyde, parabens and many more.

Luckily, this doesn't mean that you'd have to abandon your skin care regimen and makeup routine entirely for the whole nine months — turns out, there are plenty of nontoxic, pregnancy-safe beauty products out there. Keep reading to see some of our top choices.
