Retinol 0.3% n alpha arbutin 2% serum

2024-03-02 11:21:44
I am currently 4.5 months pregnant. I have been using Retinol 0.3% n alpha arbutin 2% serum on face since last 15-20days at night. Today I got to know that these are not safe during pregnancy. I have stopped using these immediately. Kindly advise what shall I do, would these have done any harm already?
