Frequently asked questions
- Is malva sylvestris flower extract safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of infant‑specific reproductive or developmental hazard. Adult dermal hazard and mechanism scores are 0. Because plant extracts contain low‑molecular constituents (flavonoids, mucilage) that are not completely non‑absorbable and infant skin has a higher surface‑area‑to‑weight and immature barrier, exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr (adult e=0 → infant e=1). No studies on infant dermal absorption for this extract were found.
