Frequently asked questions
- Is gentiana lutea root extract safe for baby skin?
- No baby-specific reproductive/toxicity data found. Dermal exposure from topical cosmetic use is unlikely to present reproductive hazard (h=0,m=0). However, because infant skin has a less mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio, exposure score is increased by +1 (e=1) compared with adults to reflect potentially greater per-kg absorption; no evidence of significant systemic bioavailability was found. Sources: CosIng, PubChem, general pediatric skin physiology literature.
