Frequently asked questions
- Is gelidium sesquipedale extract safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no data indicating infant‑specific reproductive or endocrine effects. Exposure: because ingredient is a large polysaccharide with generally poor dermal absorption, adult exposure scored negligible (0). For infants (0–3 yr) barrier immaturity and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight warrant a conservative increase in exposure to 1 (low but measurable) even though absorption is expected to be low (CosIng, PubMed). No infant‑specific toxicology found.
