Frequently asked questions

Is daucus carota sativa root extract safe during pregnancy?
Daucus carota sativa (carrot) root extract is a botanical cosmetic ingredient with no harmonised CLP classification for reproductive toxicity and no CIR or SCCS safety assessment indicating reproductive hazard. Peer‑reviewed literature shows antioxidant/skin‑benefit studies but no data demonstrating teratogenicity or reproductive toxicity; ECHA entries are notifications/registrations without harmonised H360/H361 flags. Therefore default hazard/mechanism are 0 and topical cosmetic exposure is considered negligible for systemic reproductive risk. (Sources: ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised classification), CosIng, PubChem, PubMed, EWG).
Is daucus carota sativa root extract safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence that carrot root extract causes reproductive or lactation-related toxicity or that it is a known lactation hazard. No mechanistic data for transfer into breast milk; with typical cosmetic topical use systemic exposure is expected to be negligible. (Sources: CosIng, PubChem, PubMed, ECHA registrations; no harmonised CLP hazard).
Is daucus carota sativa root extract safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific reproductive or developmental hazards identified. Mechanistic data lacking. Because infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, exposure score is increased by +1 relative to adult (adult e=0 → infant e=1), reflecting low but measurable potential absorption with topical use. No data indicate dermal toxicity for 0–3 yr specifically. (Sources: CosIng, PubChem, EWG, PubMed; no harmonised CLP).
