Frequently asked questions
- Is hydrogenated dilinoleyl alcohol safe for baby skin?
- No baby-specific hazards identified. Mechanism and hazard scores remain 0 because no reproductive/endocrine activity or developmental toxicity data were found. Exposure score increased to 1 for infants because immature skin and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio can increase per-bodyweight absorption for topical lipophilic ingredients; however, overall absorption of large fatty alcohols is considered low (CosIng; PubChem).
