Absolutely. The Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel/ Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel do not contain any ingredients that would affect a pregnancy in any way. The Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel followed by the Hydra-Pure® Radiance Renewal Serum AM and Hydra-Pure® Vitamin C Serum PM will actually help to treat melasma which is a hyper-pigmentation condition that pregnant women may experience. It is also good to wear a sunscreen as melasma is very sun sensitive. There IS CONFLICT over what’s safe for pregnancy. Glycolic and OTC strength salicylic acid are safe but I tell patients not to use salicylic acid even at OTC strength (which maxes out at 2%) more than once a day. Benzoyl peroxide and hydroquinone whitening creams should probably be avoided during pregnancy.
