Frequently asked questions
- Is sodium lauroyl hydrolyzed silk safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no data indicating reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Exposure: infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and immature barrier; while adult dermal absorption for this large acylated protein-derived surfactant is expected to be negligible, infant exposure is rated one level higher (low but measurable) by default precaution. No infant-specific studies found. (Sources: CosIng, PubChem, EWG; absence of ECHA/CIR/SCCS flags).
