Frequently asked questions

Is myrica pubescens fruit wax safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific safety or developmental data located. Parent material is a plant wax with expected low dermal penetration, so there is no identified hazard or mechanism for developmental effects. However, because infant skin has a more permeable barrier and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight ratio, a small increase in exposure potential is conservatively noted (exposure score +1) despite lack of evidence for harm (sources searched: ECHA, CosIng, PubChem, PubMed, EWG).
