Frequently asked questions

Is sodium coco-sulfate safe for baby skin?

Hazard and mechanism: no evidence of reproductive or developmental toxicity in infants. Exposure: topical surfactants have low systemic absorption in adults; infant skin barrier immaturity increases potential per‑kg exposure — therefore exposure score increased to 1 (low but measurable) for 0–3 yr despite overall low systemic hazard. Primary safety concern for infants is local irritation rather than reproductive toxicity.
