This is a very specific question, but I'm hoping someone will know! I have really bad skin problems on my hands, and someone recommended this cream to me:

However, I noticed that it has uva ursi in it, which I know is generally contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Does anyone know if it's OK topically rather than internally - or more generally, can herbs that you shouldn't take orally during breastfeeding be OK in small amounts on your skin, since so much less is absorbed?
Thanks in advance!
