Frequently asked questions
- Is citrus aurantium dulcis peel oil safe for baby skin?
- There is no infant‑specific evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard. However, infant skin has higher per‑bodyweight absorption and a less mature barrier; therefore exposure is increased by +1 relative to adults (low → moderate). In addition, citrus oils can be skin sensitizers or contain phototoxic components in some citrus species, so caution is generally advised for direct use on very young infants.
