The Research

Most pregnant women concern about what may affect the well-being of their growing babies in the food they consume. As a result, they switch to organic food in hope of avoiding exposing themselves to antibiotics, hormones, pesticides and fertilizer. However, many mums-to-be may ignore what could be entering into their babies’ bodies through their skin. When we slather on body lotion, apply sun cream and other daily routine skincare products onto our skin, harmful chemicals are absorbed into our bloodstream and eventually passed to placenta and the fetus, posting threats to the babies’ rapidly developing yet vulnerable organs and systems.

In the research conducted by Environmental Working Group in 2005, 287 commercial chemicals were detected in the umbilical cord blood from 10 randomly selected American newborn babies, out of which 180 cause cancer in human or animals, 217 are toxic to the brain and nervous system, and 208 may lead to developmental problems. The chemicals found include pollutants, pesticides and consumer chemicals in our daily lives. (Jane et al., 2005)




When we are using house hold cleaners, pumping gas, eating canned tuna, applying nail polish as well as our daily skincare and makeup during pregnancy, we unknowingly expose our babies to hundreds of hazardous chemicals. Those chemicals absorbed into mums’ bodies during pregnancy and breastfeeding months can put babies’ health at a greater risk. Babies are extremely vulnerable to chemical harms, as their systems to detoxify and excrete chemicals are not yet fully developed. Their lower level of chemical-binding proteins lets in more chemicals to reach "target organs”, while their immature blood-brain barrier (BBB) results in more chemical exposures to the developing brain. (NAS 1993)

Crafted for Pregnancy – A Higher Safety Standard

All of FLORAE’s products went through a 2-step filtering procedure. Similar to what other natural or organic brands did, hazardous chemicals such as Parabens, Petrochemicals, Silicone, Sythetic Fragrance / Colours, SLS, Phthalates and PEGs were eliminated during the first round of screening.

This might suffice for regular skincare products, but for a brand specialized in pregnancy products, FLORAE went the extra mile to conduct a teratology screening and wipe out any red-flagged ingredients (both chemical and natural) with links to miscarriage and birth defect. FLORAE is proud to be the first and the only brand conducting safety screening at this level in New Zealand.
