Frequently asked questions

Is vp/eicosene copolymer safe for baby skin?
No data indicating intrinsic reproductive or developmental hazard. Dermal exposure to infants may be higher due to immature barrier and higher surface‐area/weight; although adult systemic absorption is expected to be negligible, infant skin increases potential for some percutaneous uptake, so exposure score increased by +1 (sources: CosIng, PubChem; no harmonised classification reported in ECHA Annex VI).
Is vp/eicosene copolymer safe for newborns?
