Frequently asked questions

Is stevioside safe for baby skin?
No reproductive or developmental hazard evidence specific to infants from topical stevioside. However, infant skin has higher absorption potential; while adult dermal absorption for stevioside in cosmetics is expected to be negligible, a precautionary +1 exposure score is applied for 0–3‑year skin due to immature barrier and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight ratio. No infant-specific hazards documented. Sources: CosIng, PubChem, PubMed.
