Is EOS crystal lip balm safe during pregnancy?

Question

I just read the ingredients and realized that one of the firsts ingredients is castor oil. Is it still ok?

Answer

It's fine as long as you aren't eating it. They just don't recommend taking/drinking castor oil during pregnancy (for like inducing labor) because it can cause severe vomiting and/or diarrhea which can stress out the baby causing the baby to have a bowl movement while inside you. This is very dangerous and can cause many complications for your baby including long term breathing issues. The lip balm is not something that induces vomiting or diahrrea since you are not consuming it and the castor oil is probably in such a tiny amount even if you ate the whole tub you would be unlikely to have problems from it. It is completely safe for you to use.
