FAQ

Why look for alternatives to diethylhexyl sodium sulfosuccinate?

No EU harmonised CLP classification (Annex VI) for reproductive toxicity was located; some supplier SDS/C&L notifications list H361/H362 but these appear to be company self‑classifications, not an EU harmonised CLH. Regulatory and expert reviews (JECFA, CIR, CosmeticsInfo) indicate available animal reproductive data with a reported NOEL (50 mg/kg in rat reproductive study) but no harmonised classification or consistent evidence of human teratogenicity — hence a low-level concern (h=1). Dermal exposure from cosmetics is expected to give low but measurable systemic exposure. Sources: ECHA substance page and C&L notifications; JECFA evaluation; CIR re-review; CosmeticsInfo review.

Are these alternatives truly pregnancy-safe?

Every alternative listed has a "no known risks" risk band in our database, scored from EU CosIng, ECHA hazard classifications, and PubMed research. Always consult your OB-GYN before using new skincare during pregnancy.

Can I use more than one alternative at the same time?

Yes — many pregnancy-safe ingredients layer well (e.g. hyaluronic acid + niacinamide + mineral SPF). Our app flags any interactions when you scan full product ingredient lists.
