Frequently asked questions

Is amber powder safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification found (ECHA Annex VI). No SCCS or CIR safety assessment indicating reproductive hazard, and no peer‑reviewed reports of teratogenic or reproductive effects for amber powder (CAS 9000-02-6) were identified in the referenced sources; amber is a high‑molecular‑weight natural resinous material with little evidence of systemic toxicity from topical use (sources searched: ECHA Annex VI, SCCS/CIR records, PubMed, PubChem, CosIng, EWG).
Is amber powder safe while breastfeeding?
No data or regulatory flags indicating transfer to breastmilk or lactation toxicity; no harmonised CLP classification or SCCS/CIR concerns. Given the material's resinous, high‑molecular‑weight nature, systemic absorption from typical topical cosmetic use is expected to be negligible.
Is amber powder safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific reproductive or systemic toxicity data found. Amber powder is not reported to be readily absorbed; therefore exposure via topical use on infant skin is judged negligible. Per instructions, baby exposure was not up‑rating because adult absorption is assessed as negligible.
