Frequently asked questions
- Is prunus persica fruit safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or reproductive toxicity specific to infants. Topical cosmetic use of a fruit extract is expected to have low dermal absorption in adults (h=0, e=0). Because infant skin has a less mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio, exposure score for baby skin is increased by +1 to e=1 (measurable but low exposure) in the absence of data proving zero absorption (principle applied from regulatory exposure guidance; CosIng, PubChem, EWG).
