Frequently asked questions
- Is prunus armeniaca fruit safe for baby skin?
- No hazard or mechanistic reproductive signals for the ingredient itself. For exposure, infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, so although apricot fruit extracts are not highly bioavailable, a small increase in exposure is prudent for 0–3 yr (adult exposure judged negligible to very low; infant exposure scored +1). No infant‑specific toxicity data found. (Sources: ECHA Annex VI, CIR, PubMed, PubChem, CosIng, EWG.)
