Frequently asked questions
- Is trisodium ascorbyl palmitate phosphate safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive/developmental hazard for vitamin C derivatives; therefore hazard and mechanism remain 0. Because infant skin has a less mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight, and because ascorbyl esters/phosphates are not absolutely non-absorbable, exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr skin (e=1) to reflect potentially higher per‑kg exposure from topical use. No infant-specific adverse data were identified. Sources: CIR, SCCS, CosIng, PubMed.
