Frequently asked questions
- Is aloe barbadensis extract safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification for aloe leaf/leaf extract (ECHA Annex VI shows no H360/H361 for this INCI); CIR cosmetic assessment(s) and SCCS/CosIng listings support topical use of aloe extracts as safe when appropriately processed. Reproductive concerns reported in the literature relate to oral ingestion of aloe latex/anthraquinones (not topical cosmetic inner‑leaf gel) (sources: CIR, CosIng, PubMed; ECHA has no harmonised classification). Topical dermal exposure is expected to be low but measurable.
- Is aloe barbadensis extract safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation‑transfer hazards for topical use of aloe leaf/leaf extract; concerns about reproductive effects pertain to oral anthraquinone exposure. Dermal absorption from cosmetics is low but measurable, so exposure during breastfeeding is likely minimal (sources: CIR, CosIng, PubMed).
- Is aloe barbadensis extract safe for baby skin?
- No specific infant teratogenic or developmental toxicity associated with topical aloe barbadensis extract in the cosmetic literature; CIR/CosIng treat properly processed aloe gel as safe for topical cosmetic use. Because infant skin has higher per‑kg absorption, assign higher exposure score (+1) although hazard evidence for topical use is lacking. Avoid products containing whole‑leaf latex/aloins for infants (oral exposure) (sources: CIR, CosIng, PubMed, ECHA).
