Frequently asked questions

Is arginine ferulate safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific reproductive or developmental toxicity data found. Because the ingredient is a small, skin-permeable antioxidant salt that is likely to have measurable dermal absorption in adults, exposure for infants (0–3 yr) is increased by +1 to account for immature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight, giving e=2. No infant-specific mechanistic or hazard data were identified to increase h or m. Sources: PubChem, CosIng, ECHA C&L, EWG.
