Frequently asked questions
- Is c13-14 alkane safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification found for CAS 64742-47-8, and the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) safety assessment for isoparaffins (including C13–14 types) concluded they are safe in current cosmetic uses. Peer-reviewed summary (PubMed) supports the CIR conclusion and there are no peer-reviewed reproductive or developmental toxicity signals for cosmetic topical use. (CIR; PubMed; ECHA registration).
- Is c13-14 alkane safe while breastfeeding?
- No data indicating reproductive/developmental or lactation-specific hazards or harmonised classifications; CIR/PubMed assessments found isoparaffins (C13–14) safe in cosmetic use and no mechanism or animal/human data indicating transfer via breastmilk relevant to cosmetic topical exposures. ECHA registrations list the substance but do not provide harmonised repro classification. (CIR; PubMed; ECHA).
- Is c13-14 alkane safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Exposure: topical absorption for long-chain isoparaffinic hydrocarbons is low; however, infant skin barrier immaturity raises exposure potential compared with adults, so exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr skin. CIR concluded safe for cosmetic use; EWG lists low concern for developmental/reproductive effects. (CIR; EWG).
