Frequently asked questions
- Is hibiscus syriacus callus extract safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of specific developmental or infant toxicity. Dermal exposure from cosmetics is expected; adult dermal absorption is likely negligible for a high‑molecular‑weight plant cell extract (so adult exposure scored 0). Because infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, exposure score increased by +1 per instructions to account for greater potential absorption, despite lack of measured dermal absorption data (sources: CosIng, PubMed; methodology per user instructions).
