Frequently asked questions
- Is glyceryl tribehenate/isostearate/eicosandioate safe for baby skin?
- No evidence for reproductive or mechanistic concerns in infants. As a high‑MW, lipophilic glyceride ester, systemic absorption in adults is negligible (adult e=0). Per guidance, because infant skin barrier is immature and the ingredient is not absolutely non-absorbable, exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr, yielding e=1. No infant‑specific toxicity data were identified.
