Frequently asked questions

Is sucrose cocoate safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific reproductive/toxicology data found. Sucrose cocoate is a high‑molecular‑weight sucrose ester (low dermal penetration in adults), so hazard/mechanism remain 0. Because infant skin has an immature barrier, increase exposure rating by +1 (adult e=0 → infant e=1) to reflect higher potential per‑kg dermal uptake.
