Frequently asked questions

Is vanilla planifolia fruit oil safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific toxicity or reproductive/developmental signals identified. However, because baby skin (0–3 yr) has higher surface-area-to-weight and a less mature barrier, dermal exposure is increased relative to adults; adult exposure scored as low (e=1) is therefore increased by +1 for babies per the requested rules, giving e=2. No data found to warrant increasing hazard or mechanism scores.
