Frequently asked questions
- Is lactobacillus/kelp ferment filtrate safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no infant-specific reproductive/toxic evidence identified (h=0, m=0). Exposure: increased to 1 because infant skin has a higher surface-area-to-weight ratio and an immature barrier — although the ingredient is a complex biological/large-molecule ferment with negligible expected dermal bioavailability in adults, measurable absorption potential in infants justifies e=1. No infant-specific adverse reports found in CIR/SCCS/PubMed.
