Most anti acne medication are to be avoided in pregnancy. Regular daily use face wash may be allowed since the contact period for absorption of any medicine into skin to cause any effects is less. I am unaware as to what constituents are present in the face wash you have mentioned.  Warm regards Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru.
