Frequently asked questions
- Is trehalose safe for baby skin?
- No infant‑specific reproductive/toxicity evidence (h and m remain 0). Trehalose is hydrophilic and expected to have negligible absorption in adults, but given immature infant skin barrier and guidance to increase exposure score for baby skin when adult absorption is not zero, exposure is raised to 1 (low but measurable) for ages 0–3 (sources: CosIng, PubChem, EWG; no adverse findings in CIR/SCCS).
