Frequently asked questions
- Is bisabolol safe during pregnancy?
- Alpha‑bisabolol (CAS 515‑69‑5) has been assessed by CIR as safe for use in cosmetics and there is no harmonised reproductive classification in ECHA Annex VI nor convincing peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive or teratogenic effects (CIR; ECHA Annex VI; PubMed). Dermal cosmetic use can lead to low but measurable exposure, so exposure is scored as low/measurable.
- Is bisabolol safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation toxicity or endocrine disruption in authoritative reviews (CIR) or peer‑reviewed literature. Dermal use could produce low systemic exposure and therefore a low potential for transfer in breastmilk, but no direct lactation studies were found.
- Is bisabolol safe for baby skin?
- No infant‑specific toxicity or developmental effects reported (CIR; PubMed). Because infant skin has a higher surface‑area‑to‑weight ratio and an immature barrier, measurable dermal absorption for adults is conservatively scored one rank higher for 0–3 yr (adult e=1 → baby e=2).
- How does VeriMom score bisabolol?
- VeriMom scores bisabolol at 93/100 (no known risks) based on EU CosIng status, ECHA hazard classifications, and peer-reviewed PubMed studies. Our scoring pipeline is fully transparent.
