VeriMomIs leuconostoc/radish root ferment filtrate safe for baby skin?
No evidence of developmental or reproductive hazard in authoritative sources. Topical cosmetic use is expected to have negligible systemic hazard (h/m=0). Because the ingredient is a low‑molecular‑weight complex fermentate (not a wholly non‑absorbable polymer) and infant skin has higher permeability, exposure score increased by +1 for 0–3 yr (adult exposure considered negligible).
