Frequently asked questions
- Is asiatic acid safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications (no H360/H361) and no authoritative cosmetic-safety opinion (CIR or SCCS) establishing reproductive toxicity for asiatic acid; peer-reviewed literature does not provide confirmed human teratogenicity. Dermal exposure from cosmetics is expected to be low but measurable for a moderately lipophilic triterpenoid (asiatic acid), so exposure score is 1. Sources: ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised classification), PubChem, PubMed (no confirmed reproductive hazard).
- Is asiatic acid safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of reproductive or developmental toxicity relevant to lactation and no harmonised classification. Systemic transfer into milk not demonstrated in available literature; topical cosmetic use would likely give low but measurable systemic exposure in some circumstances. Sources: ECHA Annex VI, PubMed, PubChem.
- Is asiatic acid safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific reproductive or developmental hazards documented. Because infant skin has higher permeability and surface-area-to-weight, exposure score is increased by +1 relative to adults (adult e=1 → infant e=2) despite no evidence of specific infant toxicity. Sources: PubMed, PubChem, CosIng (ingredient presence in cosmetics).
