Frequently asked questions

Is ethyl trisiloxane safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (no H360/H361) and no CIR or SCCS safety assessment identifying reproductive hazards for ethyl trisiloxane. PubMed and regulatory summaries show no peer‑reviewed reproductive or developmental toxicity data indicating risk from topical cosmetic use, so default hazard/mechanism scores apply.
Is ethyl trisiloxane safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity, no harmonised classification, and no published data indicating transfer into milk or adverse effects on breastfed infants. Regulatory resources (CosIng, PubChem, ECHA summaries) do not flag concerns for nursing mothers.
Is ethyl trisiloxane safe for baby skin?
No data indicating reproductive or developmental toxicity specific to infants; hazard and mechanism default to 0. For exposure, silicones/volatile trisiloxanes are generally of low dermal absorption in adults (so adult e=0), but because infant skin has higher absorption potential, exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr old per the scoring rules.
