Hi all, hope you are having a good Sunday! Recently found out we are pregnant and removing anything from my skincare routine that may be dangerous- I know that retinol and hydroquinone are big no-nos but I have suffered so badly in the past from Melasma (pigmentation on face) that I am trying to find a safe alternative to retinol and hydroquinone to try to keep the Melasma at bay.
Have heard that bakuchiol is a good alternative and safe in pregnancy- thoughts? Xx

Have read in this article that it is ok...

Honestly? I would speak to your midwife or doctor and not rely on anything on the internet. Its really not worth it.
