Frequently asked questions

Is mesembryanthemum crystallinum extract safe for baby skin?
No specific developmental or infant toxicity data found (PubMed, CIR). As a botanical extract (large-molecule constituents) there is no specific evidence of systemic reproductive mechanism, so hazard and mechanism scored 0. Exposure scored 1 for infant skin because neonatal/infant skin has higher absorption potential even for ingredients with low adult dermal uptake, and no infant-specific dermal absorption data were identified.
