Is hydroxyethyl acrylate/sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer safe for baby skin?

No data showing reproductive or developmental toxicity or specific infant hazards in ECHA, PubChem, CosIng or PubMed. As a high‑MW polymer/rheology modifier, dermal absorption is expected to be negligible; therefore infant hazard and mechanism are not indicated. Exposure was judged low under typical topical use (no infant‑specific adverse data found).
