Frequently asked questions
- Is aluminum silicate safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or reproductive hazard specific to infants. Mechanistic data are absent. Aluminum silicate is an insoluble mineral with negligible dermal absorption in adults; however, because infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and an immature barrier, a conservative small increase in exposure score is applied (e=1) though systemic absorption is still expected to be very low. Irritation/respiratory hazard warnings (PubChem GHS) refer to particle irritation rather than systemic toxicity.
