Is BONAJOUR Rose Stemcell Serum safe to use during pregnancy?

Arbutin (releases hydroquinone in skin): Can release small amounts of hydroquinone on the skin, and there's no human pregnancy data, so a 2022 review makes no recommendation yet (Putra et al. 2022, SCCS 2023). This is general information, not medical advice. Check with your OB-GYN or dermatologist.

Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Use with care
- Fragrance or essential oils (Geraniol, Citronellol): Children's skin reacts to fragrance and essential oils more easily; fragrance-free products are the usual advice for kids, especially with eczema or sensitive skin.
Teens (ages 12–17)
Teen-friendly
No ingredients we flag for teens. Acne treatments like benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid are fine.
