Frequently asked questions

Is centaurea cyanus flower extract safe for baby skin?
No evidence of developmental or reproductive hazard specific to infants. Mechanistic data lacking for placental/mammary transfer or endocrine activity. However, because infant skin has a higher surface‑area‑to‑weight ratio and an immature barrier, dermal exposure potential is higher than adults; in the absence of specific absorption data for this extract, exposure score is increased by +1 for babies (per scoring rules).
