Frequently asked questions
- Is citrus aurantifolia juice safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific reproductive hazards identified. However, because infant skin has a higher surface‑area‑to‑weight ratio and less mature barrier function, measurable percutaneous absorption is more likely than in adults; therefore exposure score is increased by +1 (from negligible to low). Phototoxicity from furanocoumarins is a separate skin irritation/photo‑sensitisation concern for some citrus peel oils but is not established as a reproductive hazard for juice.
