Frequently asked questions
- Is peg-10 dimethicone/vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer safe for baby skin?
- The substance is a high‑molecular‑weight silicone crosspolymer used as a topical thickener/texture modifier (CosIng/PubChem). There are no regulatory reproductive or endocrine flags (ECHA Annex VI, CIR, SCCS). Because it is polymeric and not a small lipophilic molecule, dermal absorption is expected to be negligible even on infant skin; therefore no increase in hazard or mechanism scores is applied.
