Is arachidyl alcohol safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no evidence of developmental/neonatal toxicity. Exposure: adult topical absorption is negligible for long-chain fatty alcohols, so adult exposure scored 0; per guidance, exposure for infants (0–3 yr) increased by +1 because infant skin is more permeable and complete non-absorption is not proven, giving e=1.
