Frequently asked questions

Is hydrogenated sunflower seed oil glyceryl esters safe for baby skin?
No intrinsic reproductive or developmental hazard identified (h=0). Mechanism evidence absent (m=0). Dermal absorption from topical use of a high‑molecular‑weight, lipophilic glyceride is expected to be negligible in adults, but infant skin has higher surface‑area‑to‑weight and immature barrier function, so exposure score is increased by +1 (e=1). No infant‑specific toxicity data were found.
