Frequently asked questions
- Is bis-peg-12 dimethicone beeswax safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised classification (ECHA Annex VI) nor CIR or SCCS reproductive hazard conclusions for Bis‑PEG‑12 Dimethicone or beeswax were identified. PEG‑modified dimethicones and beeswax are treated in cosmetics safety literature as low systemic hazard; CIR/SCCS-style sources generally find them safe as used, so default hazard is 0.
- Is bis-peg-12 dimethicone beeswax safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity, no harmonised CLP classifications or SCCS/CIR contraindications. Dermal use of PEG‑modified dimethicones and beeswax is generally considered to have negligible systemic hazard in cosmetics contexts.
- Is bis-peg-12 dimethicone beeswax safe for baby skin?
- No data indicating reproductive or mechanistic concerns in infants. Dermally applied Bis‑PEG‑12 Dimethicone is a high‑molecular weight PEG‑siloxane polymer with low dermal penetration; however, because infant skin has higher absorption potential, exposure score increased by +1 (per instructions) to reflect greater potential uptake relative to adults.
