Frequently asked questions
- Is citrus reticulata peel extract safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific reproductive or developmental toxicity identified (hazard = 0). Dermal exposure score increased by +1 for infants because infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and immature barrier; for an ingredient with measurable adult dermal absorption this yields exposure = 2. Note: risk from skin sensitisation/irritation (oxidised terpenes) is a separate concern but not scored here for reproductive hazard. Sources: CIR, PubChem, ECHA information (no harmonised repro classification).
