Frequently asked questions
- Is peg-60 glyceryl isostearate safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive hazard (h=0) or mechanism (m=0). Exposure score increased by +1 for infants because the ingredient is a PEGylated surfactant/emulsifier (high nominal molecular weight but not completely non-absorbable) and infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and immature barrier, so dermal exposure potential is higher than for adults. No infant-specific toxicity studies or warnings identified.
