Frequently asked questions

Is glyceryl dioleate safe for baby skin?
No hazard or mechanistic reproductive concerns identified. Dermal absorption for adults is effectively negligible for this large, lipophilic diester; however, infant skin has a less mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio, so exposure potential is increased modestly (adult exposure scored 0, infant exposure increased to 1 as per guidance).
