Frequently asked questions

Is sh-decapeptide-7 safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific safety data located. Peptides are generally poorly absorbed topically, but infant skin has higher permeability; per instructions exposure for baby skin is increased by +1 relative to adult when measurable absorption cannot be excluded. No evidence of infant toxicity or developmental mechanism was found, so hazard and mechanism remain 0. (Sources consulted: CosIng, PubMed, ECHA summaries.)
