When to see a doctor
If anything feels severe or sudden, that’s a doctor conversation, not a product one.
Questions, answered first
What should I change while trying to conceive?
Not much on the outside yet, but this is when you stop the ingredients that don't belong in pregnancy and switch to gentle care. Skin can feel drier and lips crack more. Belly oil can wait for the second trimester.
Which ingredients should I stop?
The common ones to pause are retinoids and high-strength acids - our packs name every ingredient and carry no retinoids or hydroquinone. Keep it simple and gentle, and ask your doctor about anything you are unsure of.
Do I need special products this early?
Mostly you need to subtract, not add - stop what doesn't belong and keep skin and lips comfortable. Light, plant-based care is plenty in these early weeks. Save the belly routine for when the bump starts to stretch.
