As experts in professional skincare, Environ is frequently asked about the safety of applying skincare products containing vitamin A during pregnancy. Based on scientific facts, it is extremely unlikely that topical cosmetic vitamin A skincare products could pose a health risk or a risk to pregnancy because the active molecules are not absorbed into the bloodstream. This is not the same as taking vitamin A orally where absorption into the bloodstream is part of the natural biological process. Environ’s essential skincare ranges containing vitamin A are deemed safe to use during both pregnancy and lactation.
