Frequently asked questions
- Is lactobacillus ferment lysate safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no specific infant reproductive or developmental toxicity data and no regulatory flags (h=0, m=0). Exposure: infant skin has an immature barrier and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight, so exposure is higher than adult topical use; given the ingredient is a bacterial cell lysate (not a small nonpolar molecule), systemic absorption is expected to be low but not absolutely zero — therefore e scored as 1 for babies (increase of +1 from adult e per instruction).
