Facial Cleansers?

Hello, I am 10 weeks and 4 days along, looking to see what other expectant mothers use for facial cleaners, what is safe and what is not safe?  Same with body lotion?  Any recommendations?

Thanks!

Kristin

    I gave up my Neutrogena stuff while pregnant b/c it had salasylic (sp?) acid in it. I used a combo of lemon and witch hazel as a toner and clinique soap. I used all natural shea butter for body lotion - and still do.

    I use rubbing alcohol. My sister complains that it drys out your skin but I guess I just put a little lotion on after anyway so I never noticed.

    I use the Clinique 3-step system- just make sure it doesn't have salycic acid in it.

    Bare Essentials products are paraben free. I was surprised to learn that Johnson & Johnson baby lotion has parabens, so I just switched to California Baby Everyday Lotion for my body.

    on pharmaca.com you can choose what you don't want in your products- parabens, phthalates, etc. It's a really handy site!!
