FAQ
- Why look for alternatives to ginkgo biloba leaf extract?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS or CIR safety assessment identifying reproductive hazards, and standard toxicology summaries (PubChem, ECHA dossiers) do not list Ginkgo biloba leaf extract (CAS 90045-36-6) as a reproductive teratogen. Available peer‑reviewed literature reports pharmacologic effects at high systemic doses in some animal models but does not provide consistent evidence of reproductive/teratogenic effects at exposure levels relevant to cosmetic topical use.
- Are these alternatives truly pregnancy-safe?
- Every alternative listed has a "no known risks" risk band in our database, scored from EU CosIng, ECHA hazard classifications, and PubMed research. Always consult your OB-GYN before using new skincare during pregnancy.
- Can I use more than one alternative at the same time?
- Yes — many pregnancy-safe ingredients layer well (e.g. hyaluronic acid + niacinamide + mineral SPF). Our app flags any interactions when you scan full product ingredient lists.
