In short: During pregnancy, dark circles and puffiness under the eyes often become more pronounced because of hormones, tiredness and fluid retention. The good news is that care can continue: you just need to choose safe ingredients. Avoid retinoids and high doses of salicylic acid, and rely instead on bakuchiol, caffeine and hyaluronic acid. Rose Eye Lift with bakuchiol is suitable for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Why the eyes change during pregnancy
During pregnancy, hormonal changes, tiredness and fluid retention often make dark circles and under-eye bags more pronounced. This is normal and usually cosmetic, but many women want to continue caring for the eye area without taking any risks.
The key is to choose an eye cream for pregnancy with a safe formula. If you want to understand the causes behind the changes, see also our guide to the eye area.
Which ingredients to avoid
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, specialists generally advise caution with certain active ingredients:
| Ingredient | Recommendation during pregnancy |
|---|---|
| Retinoids and retinol | To be avoided |
| Salicylic acid (high doses) | With increased caution |
| Bakuchiol | Suitable |
| Caffeine (topical) | Suitable |
| Hyaluronic acid | Suitable |
If in any doubt, always consult your doctor or dermatologist.
