Frequently asked questions
- Is phospholipids safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Intact phospholipids are large amphipathic molecules with low expected systemic bioavailability from topical adult use, but infant/0–3y skin has a less-mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight so exposure score is increased by +1 (adult e=0 → infant e=1). No infant-specific toxicological signals found in CIR/SCCS/PubMed.
- Is phospholipids safe for newborns?
- No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Intact phospholipids are large amphipathic molecules with low expected systemic bioavailability from topical adult use, but infant/0–3y skin has a less-mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight so exposure score is increased by +1 (adult e=0 → infant e=1). No infant-specific toxicological signals found in CIR/SCCS/PubMed.
