Frequently asked questions
- Is mipa-cocoyl sarcosinate safe for baby skin?
- No specific developmental/infant toxicity evidence; CIR states sarcosinates are safe in rinse‑off and at limited concentrations in leave‑on use. Dermal absorption data are limited, but sarcosinate surfactants are rinsed and not described as non‑absorbable; per the scoring rules, adult exposure scored 0 and infant exposure increased by +1 because infant skin has higher surface‑area‑to‑weight and an immature barrier. No infant‑specific hazard or mechanism data were found.
