Frequently asked questions
- Is acetylated sucrose distearate safe for baby skin?
- No infant‑specific toxicity data found. Ingredient is a high‑molecular‑weight sucrose ester/emollient with expected low dermal absorption in adults; following the instructions, exposure (e) is increased by +1 for baby skin because infant barrier is immature and the ingredient has measurable (though likely low) topical use — but no evidence indicates additional hazard or mechanism in infants. Hence h=0, m=0, e=1. (Sources: cosmetic ingredient listings and EWG.)
