Frequently asked questions

Is citrullus lanatus fruit extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR safety assessment flagging reproductive hazard for Citrullus lanatus (watermelon) fruit extract. Available regulatory/ingredient listings (CosIng, PubChem) treat this as a botanical extract with no specific reproductive toxicology signals, and no peer-reviewed data identifying teratogenicity or H360/H361-level concerns were found.
Is citrullus lanatus fruit extract safe while breastfeeding?
No data or regulatory classification indicating reproductive or lactation-specific hazard; typical cosmetic use of watermelon fruit extract has no documented mechanism for transfer into breastmilk or lactation-related toxicity in the literature or regulatory summaries consulted.
Is citrullus lanatus fruit extract safe for baby skin?
No evidence of developmental or reproductive toxicity specific to infants. Absorption: as a botanical fruit extract used topically, dermal absorption is likely low but measurable; per scoring rules infant exposure is increased by +1 relative to adults due to immature barrier, so exposure score raised to 1 despite no adult absorption concerns.
