A member asked:

I'm pregnant and i have been using this lip gloss since day one of pregnancy.. i just found out it has retinyl palmitate can that harm my fetus?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Topical retinoids: Topical retinoid products are considered category "c" , or relatively safe during pregnancy while the pills are considered dangerous. You might drop the gloss out of caution but i consider the prior use as unlikely to have produced any problem.
