Frequently asked questions
- Is cholesteryl isostearate safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS/CIR safety assessment flagging reproductive hazard, and no peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive toxicity; ingredient is a high‑molecular‑weight lipophilic ester used as an emollient (CosIng/PubChem data), so default hazard is 0.
- Is cholesteryl isostearate safe while breastfeeding?
- No data indicating reproductive or lactation toxicity, no harmonised classification or CIR/SCCS concerns; topical use and likely low systemic availability support a 0 hazard and mechanism score.
- Is cholesteryl isostearate safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no infant‑specific reproductive/toxic data or regulatory flags (h=0,m=0). Exposure: adult dermal absorption is expected to be negligible/very low for a bulky lipophilic cholesterol ester, but immature infant barrier increases potential per‑bodyweight exposure, so exposure is scored 1 for 0–3 yr skin.
