Frequently asked questions

Is glyceryl distearate safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification for glyceryl distearate in ECHA Annex VI, no CIR or SCCS safety findings indicating reproductive hazard, and available toxicology summaries (PubChem/CosIng) do not report reproductive or teratogenic effects. Therefore default 'no evidence of reproductive hazard' applies.
Is glyceryl distearate safe while breastfeeding?
No data indicating reproductive or lactation-related toxicity or mammary transfer; ECHA/CosIng and PubChem sources do not list hazards relevant to breastfeeding, so assessed as no evidence of hazard and negligible systemic exposure from cosmetic topical use.
Is glyceryl distearate safe for baby skin?
No evidence of developmental or infant-specific toxicity (h=0, m=0). Because glyceryl distearate is an oily ester/emollient with potential for low but measurable dermal uptake and infant skin has higher permeability, exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr (adult e=0 -> baby e=1).
