Is kigelia africana fruit extract safe for baby skin?

Because this is a botanical extract containing low‑molecular constituents that could be percutaneously absorbed and infant skin has a higher surface‑area‑to‑weight ratio and immature barrier, exposure was conservatively increased to 'low but measurable' (e=1) though no evidence of infant‑specific hazard was found.
