Can you use Lash Boost while pregnant? (photo)

Question

Hello. I am 20 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child. I would like to use Rodan and Fields Lash boost, if I'm allowed. I had lash extensions and they have taken some of my real lashes. I have attached a picture of the ingredients. Could you please let me know if this is safe to use? Thank you!

Some of these products "slip in" pharmaceutical ingredients and don't list them on the label, its the reason some of them work well despite not having anything of proven value listed in the ingredients.  I would not recommend using it unless it has been tested and proven safe during pregnancy.

Thank you for your question.Lash boost has not been tested during pregnancy, so there is no way to know for sure of its safety. I would recommend sticking to product that you absolutely need to keep you and the baby healthy. Congrats on baby #3!

I do not know the specific safety profile for the use of Lash Boost in pregnancy.  However, as a mother and a doctor I would avoid using anything that is not absolutely necessary to promote the health of my baby.

Clinical studies of this product have not be studied during pregnancy. It therefore can not br recommended.
