Frequently asked questions
- Is di-c12-13 alkyl malate safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification listed (no ECHA Annex VI H360/H361 for this substance), no CIR or SCCS reproductive safety flags identified in available authoritative cosmetic/regulatory sources; esters/alkyl malates are used as emollients with no published signal for developmental toxicity in mainstream reviews (CIR/SCCS/CosIng/PubChem).
- Is di-c12-13 alkyl malate safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity in authoritative sources; low systemic bioavailability expected from topical cosmetic use (no harmonised classification or regulatory warnings).
- Is di-c12-13 alkyl malate safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no evidence of reproductive or endocrine activity specific to infants. Exposure: increased relative exposure for 0–3 y due to immature skin barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight — therefore exposure score increased by +1 versus adults despite the ingredient's expected low dermal absorption.
